Can it really be August already?

Today Disease-Proof blog is reminding me that it's almost time for back-to-school with their post on Packing A Lunch For School.

We're going to have to give that Hot Russian Dressing a try.

Almost? School started here today. All I can say is woohoo! My (very bored) daughter was so excited to go back to school that she got up at 4:30 and made her own lunch before I even woke up. :-)

My DD is also looking forward to school- and we don't start for almost a month yet. We got her a laptop lunchbox, and she can't wait to use it.

As a note to alyse- it is very true, I promise you will not identify the tofu. I loathe tofu. I cannot eat it in any shape ot form. Except in mousse. I've made that orange mousse, and one other chocolate tofu mousse- and they are both fantastic. The tofu is there for more structure than anything.

Back to school time, yay! That means new vegan lunchbox posts, I hope! Is Shmoo going to change schools? Hope the quest for a new school (or homeschool program) is going well. Enjoy the rest of the summer! :-)

Hi, Cheryl -- that's a great question! Turns out you can buy Westbrae No-Salt Fruit Sweetened Catsup and Westbrae Unsweetened UnKetchup (contains salt, though) at health food stores. Here's the website:

Re. the orange juice, I think Dr. Fuhrman has said he's not opposed to fresh juices used in moderation. There's such a small amount in something like the dressing, but you can always leave it out and just use the whole orange (I've done it and it turned out fine).

Hope that helps! :-)

Hi Jennifer,

I visit your blog often for the fun pictures and the healthy food ideas! I am an ex-vegetarian of 10 years, who is still mainly veg but has started eating fish for various reasons...

Anyhow, I wanted to introduce myself, come out of the woodwork, and hit you with a meme! I was to tag a blog that I visit often but don't comment on, so that would be Vegan Lunch Box!

Happy end of summer to you...

I love how people have created (or accepted) this new thing called "back to school." Just one more excuse to get people to buy things. Or am I the only one who feels this way?

When I was a kid (not all that long ago) it wasnt back to school (where you had to get a new computer, new backpack with matching shoes, roller blades, a graphing calculator...) it was get some pencils and a meade compo book.
