dinner: homemade pizza (carmalized onions, vegan mozeralla cheese, vegan feta cheese, sauce), which i later found out was not vegan.  my housemate made the carmalized onions and although he said they were vegan, they had honey. so  i switched to leftover pizza from last night

lunch at thaiphoon: Ka Pow Jae (string beans, zucchini, mushrooms and deep fried tofu stir fried with fresh ground peppers, garlic and basil) and vegetarian drunken noodles (fried tofu sauteed with wide rice noodles, fresh chili, garlic, basil leaves, onions and tomatoes).  I had to state that I am allergic to fish AND oyster sauce 5 times before the waiter wrote it down.  She wrote down no fish sauce, but kept ignoring my statement that i can’t have oyster sauce.  The vegetarian curry dishes have use a pre-made sauce that contains fish.  Before ordering anything off their menu ask what can be made without fish and oyster sauce.

snack: a bite of a vegan quiche from Roots Market (owned by the people who own Great Sage. This is probably my favorite market)

dinner: leftovers from thaiphoon and a ton of movie theater popcorn (without the butter)
