Now for the teensy bit of sad news. My well used, aged, little camera has given up on life and is rolling around in his death bed in pain. I am going to try the hospital and I have a beautiful new camera coming for my birthday, but I will not get to fondle her until I am back in Canada for a visit in 2 months. So, in the mean time I hope to fix my little dude and/or borrow a friends camera for posting. I have a couple items still waiting to be posted as well, so i will swing them out soon. I do wish I had a camera on hand since I still have been making all sorts of goodness, chickpea cutlets, microwave pumpkin bread, mock tuna rolls, to name a few. I wil be posting the mock tuna soon, but not in roll form. That will have to wait until new camera time. Yay, can't wait.

Vegan 100
I have been seeing the 100 list all over and figured I ought to put mine out there. Better late than never as my moms would say :). I believe Hannah from Bitter Sweet started the vegan 100. Check her site out and her 100 list. She has linked many of the foods listed that make question marks appear above your heads. I had not heard of many of these either and I have a ways to go to have my 100 complete. I think I have tried 41 of them. But in all fairness I have only been vegan a year and most of my vegan time I have been in Asia, so I am not able to get my hands on some of these fabulous treats. In due time, oh yes, in due time.
Well here is how this works:
1) Copy this list into your own blog, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten. (I high lighted mine in green and the yet to try's are red. I like the colours together, what can I say...and in no relation to christmas.)
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating. (I will try anything once, so no crossies here.)
4) Post a comment here once you’ve finished and link your post back to this one.
5) Pass it on!
