LOL<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed the links and book review. I really enjoyed that book and think you will too. I plan to lend it to my non-exercising friends which is why I am buying it.<br /><br />I am very excited to meet Dr. Greger. Can you say nutrition geek? I am a bit nuts I know, LOL. My next post will have all the details of the DC trek.<br /><br />I know what you mean about eating out and having food not sit well with you and getting tired of cooking. The same thing happens to me. That is one of the reasons I make large quantities of food that we can reheat. I guess you could say I am a bit of a lazy healthy vegan now. LOL<br /><br />Have a great Wednesday,<br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-34848173140662949412011-03-09T08:53:13.841-05:002011-03-09T08:53:13.841-05:00Elizabeth,

I wish I could get through to my friends about the dangers of dairy.<br /><br />We know how fortunate we are to have "our favorite place". In addition to them catering to us the restaurant is also very close to home. You have to love a restaurant that you can walk to. That is part of the reason we tried it the first time. Now we are fixtures of sorts.<br /><br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-81493020953675439582011-03-09T08:48:29.548-05:002011-03-09T08:48:29.548-05:00Jessica,

I took that with my cell phone.<br /><br />I appreciate knowing that you like to see what Ian comes up with for us. The dill marinated artichokes were particularly good and not a flavor combination that I would have thought of instinctively.<br /><br />Thanks for letting me know I am not the only that asks bar questions when making reservations. LOL<br /><br />I don't think most parents have chutney emergencies. Mine are just a bit spoiled. I wonder how that happened? <br /><br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-86443927971313362262011-03-09T08:43:17.392-05:002011-03-09T08:43:17.392-05:00Vincent,

I have some, but rarely use it anymore unless it's for the hummingbirds. On the other hand, I still eat chocolate of various sorts...can't seem to entirely get off sweets.<br /><br />Thanks for the links and your book report from yesterday. Enjoy another evening dining out! We went to a Mexican place the other day, but the food didn't sit well with me. I get tired of spending so much time in the kitchen, but feel so much better eating my own meals.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12379691796502650236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-52328314558050451872011-03-08T20:44:28.958-05:002011-03-08T20:44:28.958-05:00That article on the bovine growth hormone is ... u...That article on the bovine growth hormone is ... ugh!

What a wonderful night. <br /><br />I usually try to accommodate my father's beverage choice - Bud Light - because I go a few places that either don't carry it or will laugh at you for ordering it. Plus I only see him a few times a year so it is worth it. He doesn't have chutney emergencies, though!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14917367078025519399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-49795992563891579892011-03-08T16:10:20.943-05:002011-03-08T16:10:20.943-05:00LJ,

LOL @ dads! And yeah, I'm a little jealous of the friendship with Ian. I wish I had a restaurant that made things just for me! :)<br /><br />I'm glad you enjoyed my webinar.

Thank you for reminding me though and for making me smile.<br /><br />It is hard telling what goes through my parents mind. We will go with your theory though since I like the sound of it. ;-)<br /><br />Thank you for the Binky compliment. He is a little cutie when he is being good.
