Salad and fruity treats.

It's been friggin cold here lately and there was a snow storm today, so I've been craving and eating lots of soup lately and the only raw things consumed were apples and some salads. Here are a few from a couple of days back though.

Lamb's lettuce, red cabbage, zucchini & tomatoes with green olive tapenade and lots of chives and basil.



Banana, pear, raspberries & a date (gotta get more of those soon, I'm hooked) sprinkled with shredded coconut.



Blueberry-Banana Ice Cream (1/2 frozen, 1/2 fresh, 1/3 cup frozen blueberries) with a pear. This stuff is brilliant, even better than the raspberry one due to no annoying seeds being stuck between your teeth ;)



Well, back to hitting the books. Or should I say book, only 1/4th through the 500-pages one. We finally got the topics for the final exam though, so now I don't have any justification for procastination =p

Wise words, Ice Cream & Snacks

When I went to the Karneval der Kulturen on sunday I spotted a man in the crowd wearing a black t-shirt that quoted Mahatma Gandhi.

"I abhor vivisection with my whole soul. I detest the unpardonable slaughter of innocent life in the name of science and humanity so-called, and all the scientific discoveries stained with innocent blood I count as of no consequence."

That convinced me, once again, that I'm doubtlessly practicing the right lifestyle.

That said, my boyfriend's getting more and more used to it. Yesterday his friend told him about a place here in Berlin where you can get vegan Döner and he was like "I instantly thought of you! We should go there!" Yep, he knows how to make me smile!
Of course we're still arguing every now and then. He still insists that you can not and were not meant to live without meat (riiiight...). He's become more open to the points I make though.
And since I don't feel like I have enough arguments I figured it's way about time to buy The China Study(and while I'm at it I think I'll get Eat to Live, too). Too bad it's not available in German, because everytime I try to make a statement to someone even now I don't know how to translate it into German so it'll make as much as an impact as it would in English. Know what I mean?

Onto the food, I had a yummy rye bread roll this morning with soy cream cheese (finally I found one, shouldn't use it for baking though because it's rather salty), basil, arugula, tomato and cucumber.



Yesterday I had half a bread roll with cream cheese and a tomato and bell pepper to go with it.



My mom bought these ice cream waffle "bowls" a few days ago and I considered them to contain egg or butter or something, but they're completely vegan =D
You can see Tofutti's Mango & Passionfruit and Chocolate ice cream(you were right Ruby, it's delicious) with crunchy amaranth cereal on top.



I realize that this is rather a snack post, but I've cooked up this dish again because it's just too yummy so that's why there's nothing new.
Hopefully tonight =)
