Veganniversary and New Microwave


First off, I want to offer my sincerest condolences to my friend, Joan, whose husband John passed this week. John was a sweet man and will be missed by all who knew him. This photo is from last summer and we will remember him fondly.
It has been exactly one year since I stopped eating meat, eggs, and dairy products. In that year I have lost 35 pounds and I feel so much better. I can honestly say I do not miss any of it. Big thanks to my sister Gail for all her support!

The convection part of our convection/microwave stopped working over a year ago and we finally ordered a new one. Bob did some internet searching and found the best price at Office Depot, of all places. So I contacted Lowe’s and asked if they would price-match. They agreed and we saved $126. Score! It arrived on Wednesday and Bob and I spent a really fun (just kidding) 90 minutes getting it in place.
Our old one, which was the exact same model, was missing the manual and cookbook and I was surprised to discover I was not using it properly. So now I get to learn how to do it right.

On Thursday it was so beautiful that Bob, Kristen, and I decided to take the train to Philadelphia and get lunch.

We walked around a bit first, enjoying the sights of cobblestone side streets and carriage arches.
Then we ate at Reading Terminal Market and I had my favorite, Chana Masala from Nanees, with the best curried spinach I ever had. I found a recipe for it and will make it soon.

That’s all for now. Happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there!
