Cat dissection is mandated! HELP!!!
Renecarol25 replied to veganbarbie's topic in General Discussion
I managed to get excused from dissection in high school but in college I had to. I was caught off guard by it. I didn't have any forewarning that our class was going to be doing something like that otherwise I would've talked to the dean. I was lead to believe that the laws that protect public education (ie high school) did not apply to private universities. It was do it or fail the assignment and I was barely passing the class as it was. It was a very traumatizing experience. It didn't involve cutting into but rather skinning to study the muscular skeletal system. I remember my professor yelling at me and I was almost in tears. I wish I had a do-over and I could've walked out of the class and dropped the course. -
Let's talk about Thanksgiving recipes!
Renecarol25 replied to Paul Messplay's topic in Vegan Recipes
This is going to be our biggest vegetarian thanksgiving ever. Usually it is just the 3 of us plus maybe my parents so at most 5 people. This year my father-in-law is living with us (eating vegetarian at home I might add, I'm impressed) and he's invited my brother in law + family (who are definitely coming) and sister in law + family (not sure they will come). So we could have 10-14 people. Not sure how I'm going to feed so many people. I did buy 2 tofurkys. When my daughter was little a tofurky seemed to last forever, now they rarely last the end of the week. They must've gotten better over the years or our appetites have grown quite a bit!! But my guess is our non-veg guests will be eating mostly the side dishes. So I've been kind of looking around for vegan and vegetarian recipes for us to cook. The current menu: Tofurky roast (the kind you buy at the store) with onions, carrots, potatoes Stuffing Gravy Mashed Potatoes Baked Sweet Potatoes and Apples topped with nuts Pumpkin Pie Apple Pie -
I got bread, a couple different kinds of bagels and bananas on my counter. Junk food goes on top of the refrigerator.. everybody knows that

Is anyone offended byt the term Soy "chicken" or s
Renecarol25 replied to JW's topic in General Discussion
Yeah I prefer the misspelled name like "chikin" or "bakon" or something to that affect. But we also eat turkey-styled deli slices. So I guess all that matters is that the animal isn't actually in the food! -
I just got back from a nice long vacation. We've been having a hard time getting back into the groove the past few days (with work, skating, even getting up and going to sleep) and school starts back next week. Anyway I missed last weeks show and was able to see it for free off the scifi website - I believe you can see all the episodes online.

Tonya Kay got booted off tonight's show because one of her friends spilled about a time that she littered during the friends and family interviews. You can download the episodes and watch off of scifi.com I missed last week.

What an awesome show! How cool is it that they are making Iron Enforcer a supervillian?? I was hoping he'd get axed. But that is a great twist. I'm still pulling for Lemuria. I think Tonya Kay fared better tonight. It really doesn't look like she is going to make it for the "long haul" though.

I liked the wonder woman look alike the best. I can't believe how many people ran past that little girl. It was so obviously a plant! I liked how the man in the red suit handled the girl. In true 'superhero fashion' though I have to say it would've been a little scary if she hadn't been so obviously a plant. Anyway I loved the show. I don't think Tonya Kay was presented in a favorable light either. Edited to add: Wonderwoman look alike is Lemuria. And the man in red suit is Major Victory. These are my current favourites to win.

Which forum members have you met in person?
Renecarol25 replied to robert's topic in General Discussion
I don't think I've met anybody other than michealhobson in person. We met last year at the Veggie Fest in Richmond. I'm not sure if he is still posting. -
I saw the commercials for the show for the first time today. I was really intrigued to see Tonya Kay is going to be on it. Hopefully it'll be a positive depiction of vegans in the media. I look forward to watching.
