Shopping and drinks

No running for me today.

Too tired.  All those hills have just about killed me.

So instead we went shopping.

Let me tell you I am not a shopper.   I definitely have to be in the mood.

The cool thing is we don’t have to drive here.  Shopping is right around the corner.

Lulu hurry up and open. Well actually don’t.  My wallet can’t take it.

Lot of fun little shops too.  Is that Pepsi?

We took a break in the action to soak up some alcohol sun.

Thankfully I had a successful shopping spree and managed to score some good deals on work clothes at Banana and The Loft.

Where do you buy your work clothes?

 

Omnivores turned vegan?

Bill’s parents would consider themselves healthy Omnivores usually eating fresh fish and veggies with some cheese and red meat occasionally.

They really are the picture of health.  Would you belive his dad is 7o something and his mom his 60 something.  It’s her birthday today too!

Their friends, the Canadians Linda and Tom are vegans.

Linda turned vegan about 15 years ago because she had debilitating back pain.  She read The China Study which led her to try the diet to fix her back problems.  Consequently it worked and she has been a believer in a vegan diet since then.  Don’t they look great as well?

As you know, Bill and I have been dabbling in the Vegan diet more and more lately.  What pushes us to continue is how great we feel and how strong we both feel working out.

Last night we shared our vegan food with Bill’s parents and Linda and Tom.

We started with some appetizers.

And some vino.

And we served my new favorite dinner party meal.

Angela’s Vegan Lasagna and Bill’s famous Kale Salad.

Bill’s Dad could not belive the lasagna did not have cheese.  This recipe really is  great for non vegans because it tastes spot on to the “real” thing.  Also, Bill’s Kale Salad is really becoming quite a hit too.  I am going to post the recipe when we get back from vacation.

It was a fun night and fun to share vegan food with some non vegans.

Now we need to get our appetite going for Thanksgiving!  Can’t believe it is tomorrow :)
