This has pretty much been me for the past week:
Only I wish I looked this good while sick. I got some cold/flu/upper respiratory bug that pretty much knocked me on my behind for a good solid 6 days or so. I’m still not feeling 100%. I was really bummed too because I had some delicious food in my fridge to prepare but I just didn’t have the energy.
I do have some exciting news though! I’m going on a little vacation to Colorado in about a week. I’m going to be going with my Dad, Stepmom, and Grandma, to visit my Uncle and his family who live there. I’m excited for several reasons: 1) I haven’t been on an actual vacation since I went to visit Andrea last summer, 2) I haven’t been to Colorado since…..2002? and 3) I’m interested to see how difficult it will be finding healthy vegan food while traveling with my very non-vegan family. I’ve been making preparations – I’ve already come up with some things I’ll be taking and some backup ideas, and I plan to document my experience for this very blog. For the next few days, though, I’ll probably just be laying on my couch popping Vitamins B, C, and D and eating more of this stuff:
how cool about the trip! Given Co. is like the healthiest state in the U.S, i think vegan options will be easy to come by, right? I guess the difficulty would be in getting family members to agree to go along…not sure if that’s an issue?
It’s not usually too much of an issue, because my family is awesome! And they do like to eat healthily, for the most part. But I also don’t want to be a pain
I’m also hoping they’ll let me prepare a vegan feast for everyone one of the days we’re there.
That is my all time favorite ice cream! Enjoy
I would so LOVE to taste that ice cream!
I’m just sitting here with a runny nose, hoping it’s just an allergic reaction to something and not the beginning of a cold. The only thing I hate about the fall are the bugs that start going around (although I rarely catch anything myself – knock on wood) – otherwise I love the season.
Have fun preparing for your trip!
I totally bought some of that ice cream last night for the hubster.
