Hey,
I noticed we have a lot of new members today and I want to welcome you here. I know it can be hard to know what to say on your first post. My experience... ::)
I sent you guys wave hellos just as part of saying Hi. I couldn't send to the ones without a profile.
So anyways, I just wanted you guys to feel welcomed! :)
Welcome! :)

it has been nice to see an increase in the members recently! welcome all! while this site is about vegan cooking and whatnot, we embrace everyone who is here to learn, regardless of the diet you follow.
(p.s. my profile is a joke)

Darn...That's right, and I was just thinking I'm unpopular! :-\
I'm gonna make a fake one too... :D
P.S.: I know you're joking you look waaaaaay cuter than a 40 year old man... I saw you pics I've been here a while. ;)
humm, i wonder how much info people could put together about me. i'm sure someone could be clever enough to figure me out.
The clever ones will. Don't sweat it, you're too smart to wonder.
Oh and maybe you're still single because you're too busy, and yes you're a hottie but a lotta people are intimidated by intelligence... Maybe you have to play it dowm a little... ;)
Just kidding.. ;D
Anyhoo I'll see you guys later. I spend way too much time here today.
Love you all. :)
dude, mindwalk, time for a profile. i am starting to feel like i have a stalker ;)
Are you calling me dude? ??? I'm a flower, really! ;D
BayPuppy I'm not a stalker I really just like ya. ;) Okay that sounds freaky... 8)
Really though, I think it is just nice when you guys are friendly, you all a great bunch, I always laugh at what everybody's jokes, it gives a great feeling but I'm not going to stalk you. :o
I'm too lazy and apprehensive, about putting up a profile but I've been giving a lotta of thought so you guys get to know me a bit,once I get my computer next week I might give it a go, so you finally have an understanding how simple I am, if you haven't noticed already. :-\ :P
i was joking ;D
but did you make a profile yet? i have an urge to stalk...!! ;D
F'real. It's been a while...
Girls. I wasn't ignoring you. I had to walk away with my small daughter and didn't log off.
Well, I got back, my daughter was typing with me and BAM she shutt off the computer. :P
I opened back up and all the programs that my husband was working on went bye-bye... :-\
I just known my husband is gonna give us the earfull because he was working in some programs and he gets lotta emails. I hope he didn't lose anything... :-[
Sh!t!!! I was having a good day so far! ;D
I looked at her and like what did you do?! And she was like uh-oh and gave me a kiss. She is too funny::)
Anyhoo...quit asking about my proffie, I'm not that interesting... ;D You guys sound like real stalkers... ;)
Stalker Kitty!!
Hope your husband's work has been saved recently.
Hmm... should I introduce myself or should I pick someone to stalk? ;)
I think I'll just go ahead and introduce myself-
My name is Cristina. I'm 30. I've been a vegetarian for almost one year. It was no problem at all quitting the meat since I only ate chicken, turkey and fish. The only real problem was telling my DH. (I really hope DH means husband. I'm a bit new at this!) He was not happy because in his opinion a meal is not complete without some kind of meat and white starch. Ew. Ever since stumbling upon this website I've toyed with the idea of becoming vegan. I don't know if I could go all the way, but I have made some changes in my diet. I haven't eaten yogurt in about six months, and I used to eat at least a cup every day. Surprisingly, it hasn't been too hard to give up. I also no longer buy cheese for myself, and will often ask for food without it at restaurants. And eggs, I'm in the process of phasing them out. But ice cream. Oh, ice cream. That one is difficult. Will I survive if I never again eat Ben and Jerry's Chubby Hubby ice cream? I really don't know.
So that's me and my veg journey.
I've been married for seven years and work as an educational sign lanuage interpreter.
I have to say, I'm very excited to join vegweb. I've really enjoyed lurking here the past couple years. (yes, it's taken me that long to get up the nerve to post!)
Hi. I'm glad you've stopped lurking and have started posting. I have a couple of thoughts.
About yogurt. It's a staple of mine. I sprinkle some cut grains, cut flax seed, a powdered multivitamin/mineral/protein, and blueberries on Whole Soy & Co. soy yogurt most mornings. If you start missing yogurt, Whole Soy is the soy yogurt that's closest to the dairy type.
About ice cream. The most dairy tasting soy ice cream is Tofutti. The vanilla is awesome. If you're looking for ice cream with stuff mixed in, So Delicious makes flavors like Mocha Fudge. Some So Delicious flavors are heavy on the aftertaste (like the mint one), but the Mocha Fudge is pretty good.
I never did like eggs or cheese. I gave those up long before I gave up meat.
It's a bit too weird for me to welcome you. You've been lurking longer than I've known about this site. I knew about the recipes, but because I didn't have a recipe question, I never bothered checking the Recipe Q&A part. I accidentally stumbled upon it when I hit the wrong tab.
Thanks for the ideas, Humboldt_Honey. I'll have to give Whole Soy & Co. yogurt a try. One thing I've found that satisfies my yogurt craving is something I call cashew mango cream. I blend together cashews, a bit of water, vanilla, agave nectar, and frozen mangoes until it becomes thick like yogurt. I like to layer it with sliced fruit and wheat germ in the mornings. But when I'm in a hurry I think soy yogurt will do the trick.
Okay, so I got a wave hello from stuckeymom - 0 posts. Which means you're a lurker. We want you to be a poster! This is a great thread to do it. Come on, you know you want to. ;D
I'm a Whole Soy & Co. fan, too. My favorite thing to do with it is blend the apricot mango with frozen mango to make a mango lassi. Very nice. :)
