Tina,

 

What stores do you find most of your vegan items at? I think in

Hamilton we only have like one or two really good ones...altho im

still looking for Tofutti cheese slices or blocks.... since toronto

aint that far im willin to venture out to some good vegan stores if

they exist... lol...

 

Im glad that im a single mother... my ex husband family is eat soo

much meat that they would feed her behind my back... im soo glad i

dont have to deal with that...

 

I'm still debating between 2 universities and i wanna pick the one in

the most vegan friendly town since both r equal education

wise...lol.. im not gonna ramble this morning...if you ever wanna

talk email me sometime when you have a chance...i know what its like

to be busy... my email is taz121798 ttyl...

was about a month old we were having dinner with the inlaws and they

were talking about how they cant wait to feed my son hamburgers and I

told them we were raising him vegan, well....... that didnt go so

well.

> My Husband didnt back me up much not untill the end and he wasnt

even veggie yet at the time so they thought that I was the only one

involved in that decision. They were so pissed off we didnt talk for

some time. What I have always hated about my inlaws is that they

treat my son as if he was more their son then my own, well in the

beginning anyways but I put my foot down and my son is vegan, my

husband is now vegan (since he watched the peta videos) and my inlaws

are very happy with my sons development. They have even cut down on

the meat, they arent perfect, although they understand the concept of

no dairy and eggs, they wonder why my son cant have yogurt covered

chocolate...lol
