Day 23 - B-12 and Flaxseed

It was 90 flippin' degrees today.  Do you think that Tina got her lawn mowed?  Think again.  I did wash my car and vacuum it out...so the day was not a complete write-off. 

I also did a little shopping, because today...

"Go to your health food store and get some vitamin B12 sublingual tablets. Also get some fresh flaxseed (it will probably be in the refrigerated bulk section) or flaxseed oil. Start taking both today!"
Sarah Taylor. Vegan in 30 Days: Get Healthy. Save the World. (Kindle Locations 497-498). Kindle Edition.

Well, A) the health food store is closed on Sunday, and B) we are approaching the end of the month, and Teener needs to take the economy route, we instead modified a little and went to Rite Aid instead.  Got my B-12, and some flaxseed oil, which Sarah tells me that I can put in my smoothie.  Mission accomplished.

And in case you are curious...right now, the thought of a hot dog with lots of mustard on it, or maybe a slaw dog, has me on the verge on insanity.  Made only stranger by the fact that I rarely eat hot dogs, maybe 4 times a year.  But today, it's all I can think about.  I want one right now.  Right this minute.  NOW.

My saving grace is that they are not in the house, so I can't just go make one; and I'm 1,000% positive that I'll run into someone I know if I go to the grocery store, and I'll get the "Hey - aren't you a VEEEE-GAN?" question while standing in the checkout line with Oscar Meyer and his best buddies.  Without a doubt.

Instead, think I'm going to go eat some green beans straight out of the can.  If it's 90 outside, it has to be 100 in here.  Gah.

  1. 90?? THAT'S ALL????

    110 here. And we don't have central air either. It blew up and William's byotch stepdaughter (princess) who owes us LOTS of money.... her husband was supposed to fix it and we'd call the debt even. That was over a month ago. Yes, we've been without a/c for a flippin' month!!

    We have 3 window units. One in the kitchen, one in the living room and one in the bedroom.

    *sigh*

  2. Go buy a veggie dog - they are smaller than the huge Oscar Meyers, but taste exactly the same!

  3. I got my B-12 today, but I didn't find the flaxseed. Instead, I got some ingredients to make vegan rootbeer ice cream. I hope it doesn't taste like crap.
