I asked if they were vegan, and they said they were mostly vegan and that their daughter was vegetarian. I asked if they had heard about the "vegan lunchbox site," but they hadn't, so I started telling them about it. The mom says to the little girl, "So what do you think, would you like a vegan lunchbox?" and the girl says, "NO, I like cheese!" It was really funny and opened my eyes to how hard it could be to raise a vegan child. I'm really proud of you and Shmoo both, keep up the good work with those smoothies! :-)Maryjamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16823370107874196689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1155957467871896002006-08-18T20:17:00.000-07:002006-08-18T20:17:00.000-07:00Nice salad!Nice salad!Internet Street Philosopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13529348442250391307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1155938438406853552006-08-18T15:00:00.000-07:002006-08-18T15:00:00.000-07:00Looks like a perfect summery lunch.

It's a teeny tiny loaf, so it's really pretty spendy for something that's mostly wheat berries. I've bought some organic wheat berries in bulk and will try sprouting and making my own as soon as it's cooler outside. <BR/><BR/>I might even try some different combinations: maybe carrot pulp (leftover after juicing carrots) and pineapple, or nuts and cinnamon.

I would also leave out the honey/agave nectar; I think you could probably blend it with a couple dates if you miss the sweetness. Play around and see what you come up with. :-)Jennifershmoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663322884550580226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1155756198440144472006-08-16T12:23:00.000-07:002006-08-16T12:23:00.000-07:00Shmoo's 8 now... that's great he's into cooking.

I feel much more in balance hormonally and emotionally. I would ask you, what is your and your mother-in-law's diet like? Fatigue during your period is usually caused by iron difficiency. How much soy are you eating? You may want to reasearch this further, as it seems to be diet-related. Good luck!
