Vegan Mofo VI- Day 8: Tray Time

Last night we went to go see the house my sister and her boyfriend are buying. It's an adorable home in a great neighborhood. They're going to have to put in some work to make it their own, but that's part of the fun, right?! I can't wait to see it when it's all finished, and of course I will help them out however I can with cleaning and such.

A happy coincidence is that they do not live too far from one of our favorite Chinese takeout places. We don't go there too often since it's not too close to where we live now. I took advantage of our being in the neighborhood and I pushed for us to make a stop. It was already past dinner time and their prices are good, so I didn't meet too much resistance.

This is spicy tofu with vegetables and way too much chow mein. Unlike the previous night's cake feast, I was able to show some restraint. I ate about half of it at the restaurant and brought the other half home for lunch today. I don't go out for fast food often, so when I do, it is a treat. I'm glad it was the night I decided to start jogging home with the dog at night instead of walking. It's getting darker earlier but my work hours are the same so I've been wondering how I am going to continue taking her out when I get home without cutting our route/time short. I don't like to be out after dark, even if I have a very intimidating sidekick with me. I'll feel better getting home quicker and I'll also meet my health goals a little sooner.
