    Hi all, I'm Jennie.
    I lurk and occasionally post here. I'm, eh, very nice.

    I've been a veggie for about 5ish years now. S'good times.
    I've decided to include a photo of myself and my favourite person in the world, who some of ye may recognise...
    Now, I relaise my face is hidden, but I look like a smug knob-end in the other one of myself and my favourite person. Plus this one's far classier.

    Hello there everyone new I've missed. :D

    I've been rather away lately. But I'm sure it'll be wonderful to talk to you all.
    And there is a purveyor of chocolate-y badness? I like you already....

    She showed me how to make chocolate cake in a cup! It doesnt get more chocolaty purveyor than that!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 155 ✭✭shinysiren


    How about homemade hot chocolate, made with dark chocolate (80%) and cream.
    It's some decadent stuff!

    But I wanna make cake in a cup!

    muaha! I knew it! /stalk
    nah I can always tell! :p

    Death nte is fantastic..watched it 3 times now hehe. How much they set you back? Buying this stuff is ridiculously expensive! I saw one film of it, it wasn't anime, just some japanese people.

    Just got 40 episodes of bleach yester to catch up with teh newest season, think it's season 13, it's great! Haven't watched naruto yet but it's probably great. I'd try hellsing and samurai champloo and cowboy beebop and ghost in teh shelll...ok i better stop listing things now! Next think you know you'll be at Eirtakon
    Ah wanna watch deathnote again now thinking about it...and be L for halloween. :p

    Some of you have met the real Donnie...
    He's really been working his winter coat this year. It's like his fur knew in advance how cold it was going to be. Fluffy, fluffy, fluffy.... :p

    Man he is a beaut! Ridiculously fluffy cats are the BEST I have two, but only one is cuddly. Is he one of those half wild barna cats?


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭DonnieScribbles


    Ha, yes he is cuddly, but he's very picky with the cuddling, he's prone to gnawing on your arm if you over-do it :p
    He is some kind of Siberian forest cat, but how that happened is a mystery! This is his mother, she died a few months back unfortunately :( She was also super fluffy, but she really liked the cuddles!

    Aw she has lovely markings. Thats the prob with cats and animals in general they live such short lives compared to us, heartache is an inevitability if you're a pet owner.
    I love that psycho 'oh I love you, I love you, *clamp* pissed off now cos you did it wrong!' thing they do, shows theres still a bit of wildness in there somewhere :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭DonnieScribbles


    Yeah, it's definitely something you sign up for when you bring an animal into your life. She was quite young though so it was pretty sad.
    And yes, the kitty mood swings, there's nothing like them :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27 Vegan Wannabe


    I'm 23. Female. Doing a Masters in UCD. Vegetarian since I was 15 or so. I think cow's milk is for calves but you might catch me eating pizza the odd time. Sometimes I pop a marshmallow in my mouth from the cineworld place. Basically - trying to eat vegan food as best I can but I slip up' now and then. So if anybody asks- i'm a vegetarian who doesn't eat alot of dairy.
    Newish to this forum but it's great!:)

    Hello! You should indeed post and pipe up :) What's IADT like for vegan food?


  • Registered Users Posts: 953 ✭✭✭suzaane


    Hello! You should indeed post and pipe up :) What's IADT like for vegan food?
    Terrible :( i usually bring food with me! The odd day i'm caught out I can only have chips or if they have rice that day!
    They usually have some salad around too, but that doesn't fill me up ;p


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,126 ✭✭✭sweet-rasmus


    Ah, I was hoping you'd have secret praise for the place :D I've been in UCD for years and I've always brought my own food in. I once got some sort of bean dish from the restaurant that happened to be vegan, but it didn't taste too good. Never bothered askng again! Sure, there's always chips if I ever get desparate :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 497 ✭✭Aisling&M


    I'm Aisling and a veggie for over a decade and vegan for 3 weeks and loving it. I had some health issues which have resolved since stopping dairy. It wasn't the reason I did it but a GREAT benefit. It feels a bit like a reward.

    Anyway, I'm 26, married to a carnivore-turning-omnivore-turning part-time vegetarian. I'm an artist, holistic therapist, hobby cook and writer and a few other things.

    :D

  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,082 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Hey dude, welcome aboard, nice misfits tshirt :P

    You look quite like a pal fof mine that's trying to be a veggie


  • Registered Users Posts: 645 ✭✭✭rockmongrel


    Hello Kieran! Interesting picuture indeed... oh the stories one could invent around it I can only imagine...

    What do you do with yourself? Veggie? Vegan? Tell us more :D

    Oh there stories there were. About 20 minutes later I had the word "Virgin" on my forehead in pink sharpie ink and sleeping on the floor of a sitting room with around 15 other people. New years '07 or '08 I believe it was...

    I'm a history student in Trinity, veggie for around... 5 or 6 months now and loving it and finding it incredibly easy as my mam herself is a pescetarian/vegetarian for health reasons, so that's very convenient :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,126 ✭✭✭sweet-rasmus


    Ah good stuff :) If you would like to come along to a UCD VegSoc dinner on Tuesday you would be more than welcome (as are any other Dublin area student boardsies). Govinda's, Abbey St, 6.30pm ;) There are plenty of TCD veggies about here... someone must be interested in getting a society going!
