And hummus, I know, I'm a sucker for it myself!<BR/><BR/>Chocolate Covered - Point well taken! :-)<BR/><BR/>Lisa - I don't think it's all that uncommon. The Mr. Bento is really nice, it comes with it's own little carrying bag with a strap and everything, and a perfectly sized slot for chopsticks (but it fits a fork, spoon or knife as well).<BR/><BR/>Leng - I know! Ick! I have to go tomorrow and I'm just trying not to think about it.<BR/><BR/>I know, tooth pain is kind of weird like that. Pressure seems to feel the best so I keep jamming my fist into the side of my face. I imagine any who looked into my office and saw me doing that would think I was a bit off.<BR/><BR/>Vegan Noodle - I'm with you, I want a magically disappearing cavity!<BR/><BR/>Yes, Duncan Hines Classic Chocolate is accidently vegan.<BR/><BR/>She has her actual graduation ceremony this weekend, I'm not sure it will actually hit her until after that.<BR/><BR/>Rural Vegan - Hahaha! I do kind of feel bad for dentists, they have such a bad rap!Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-18705230861036017532008-05-15T11:11:00.000-05:002008-05-15T11:11:00.000-05:00I feel for you, everyone hates the dentist and I a...I feel for you, everyone hates the dentist and I also put it off for as long as humanly possible.

Actually I hope the cavity magically disappears so you don't have to go to the dentist :-) I hate them too if it makes you feel any better!<BR/><BR/>Cupcakes look yummy. Good to know there is premade frosting out there if I need some in a pinch!

Me neither! It's horrible what they do to us there! drill, grind, scrape, eep! aap!<BR/><BR/>I hope you feel better though.

I hope I can eat solids too! I have some Amy's canned soup on back up just in case.<BR/><BR/>Hahahaha! I truly am lazy most of the time, it might not seem like it with some of the stuff I make, but I spread it out to where I'm never in the kitchen for more than 40 minutes at a time or so.<BR/><BR/>Her dissertation defense WAS a very special occasion, she deserves dozens more cupcakes for what she's accomplished. A strong woman in the male dominated field of math is something we should all respect.<BR/><BR/>Romina - I didn't have a problem with dentists until I got braces (which left my teeth worse off by the way), since then it's been nothing but pain and bad news.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you feel the same way. I hated loading down the meal with oil, but wanted it to taste as good as possible.<BR/><BR/>Courtney - Haha! I'm not the only one.<BR/><BR/>She really did, I think she was a bit overwhelmed by the literally HUGE spread we had for her, cupcakes, bages, fruit, juice, chocolate, my goodness, I drool just thinking about all the food.<BR/><BR/>Chickpea - That's part of my problem, I avoid the dentist like the plague/ Haha.<BR/><BR/>Gotta put our best face forward huh? <BR/><BR/>I thought my lunch seemed familar, it's all your veggies!<BR/><BR/>That IS a Mr. Bento, yes, I think I've seen the dame group! Haha, Mr. Bento porn. I really love it though.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-52306959380851117822008-05-13T19:30:00.000-05:002008-05-13T19:30:00.000-05:00So sorry to hear about your tooth. To be honest, I...So sorry to hear about your tooth. To be honest, I don't think I have been to the dentist since I started college. I hate that place.<BR/>Those cupcakes look so delicious! I agree that when baking for omnivores, it is best to stick to the recipe. I don't want them thinking that all vegan goodies are too dry, etc.<BR/>That lunch looks SO good! Many of my lunches look exactly like that! BTW, do you have a Mr. Bento? I don't have one, but I browse a flickr group called Mr. Bento Porn, so I am familiar with them. Just curious.<BR/>Enjoy your day!ChickPeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01796488061660385286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-75919303355418078122008-05-13T19:01:00.000-05:002008-05-13T19:01:00.000-05:00Hahaha--I have used store-bought accidentally vega...Hahaha--I have used store-bought accidentally vegan frosting on treats for omnis too!

Stupid teeth!<BR/><BR/>Hahaha, yes I'm sure the cupcakes don't help. The recipe makes about 30 cupcakes. I made a bunch because I was taking them in to co-workers, when I made the second batch at home, I halved the recipe and it made about 16 cupcakes.<BR/><BR/>I hope your teeth problems get fixed soon too!Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.com
