#2023missionimpossible My go-to veggie bowl these days with sautéed kale with garlic, brown rice, corns, beans, tomatoes, baby beet roots, chopped onions, and half avocado with homemade cilantro-lime dressing. Yummy! But.. it also made me wonder.. since I use canned corns and beet roots as well as mayo in my dressing, how eco friendly it is.

#2023missionimpossible At a restaurant I made a conscious choice to order “Veggie and Pesto” (+) Egg Benedict (-).

#2023missionimpossible Today’s breakfast, lunch and dinner were almost full vegan (apart from the butter used to prepare the mushroom risotto) however when my partner took the gelato out of the freezer for dessert, the flavour was so tempting that I did not decline! Now I know that ice cream is also one of my weak spots😂

#2023missionimpossible My "almost" vegan dinner I had today. Mushrooms, broccolis, bean sprouts, radish, green onion, garlic (x99), aster leaves, mixed rice. It's still not completely vegan because I used anchovy extract to season the aster leaves.

#2023missionimpossible I ate vegan potato pizza with salad. I do not usually eat german foods but I enjoy very much healthy vegan foods.

#2023missionimpossible I made my vegetable salad using herbs, vinegar, and olive oil.

#2023missionimpossible I ordered a burger at work with the impossible patty, so I can indulge in my unhealthy cravings and feel less guilty than I normally would.

Last week we spent a little extra money to install a heat pump for our home heating and cooling needs to replace our 23 yr old system. Now with our solar panels and backup battery, our house is a net positive producer of electricity. We produce extra electricity and send it back to the power grid. It is a passive attempt at helping the environment but I feel proud(and nerdy) to know that our family is helping by reducing demand for fossil fuels and reducing the demand for energy during these extreme weather conditions.

Today I could use all three items of eco-keeper - tumbler, handkerchief and cloth bag. In the afternoon my family had to walk quite long distance, sweating and thirsty then I handed them my handkerchief and tumbler. I was happy that all my family could be eco-keepers unexpectedly.

#2023missionimpossible Though I did not directly use any meat, this meal is still not vegan, because I used anchovy extract to season the stir fried aster side dish (취나물볶음). I\\\'m pretty sure the store bought kimchi also contains fish extract as well. When I feel like I\\\'m short on time, I often end up doing what I\\\'m used to instead of finding an alternate solution. On a slightly different note, the 1MB attachment limit seems awfully harsh and I wonder how many people will bother resizing their images before uploading 🙁
