Virginia Tech's Dinning Hall

This weekend, we were up in Blacksburg, Virginia for a conference on breastfeeding and how to support people in doing it. We ate on the campus of Virginia Tech the whole weekend. On Friday, we stopped to see glammy at an Indian Restaurant. There were a few items on the menu that we have not tried like mango mixed veggies (super yummy!) and a chick pea salad. We also had chana masala, naan bread and rice. After dinner, we shared a small scoop of blueberry mango sorbet. They also had mint mojito but e chose the blueberry.

At VT for breakfast on Saturday morning, i asked for soy milk for our cereal and the man said, "it's over in the vegetarian and vegan section" Uhm awesome! We had a banana, split an orange and a bagel. Hubs made us each a bowl of oatmeal with brown sugar and raisins. Very yummy. We brought snacks with us like annie's organic cookies, peanut butter crackers and ginger sesame crackers. For lunch and dinner, we had lots of options so we shared a few things like stir fried veggies and rice, pasta and marinara sauce, beans and rice burrito with lettuce and tomato. Hubs had fried rice, seitan peppers and onions and veggies. Later that night, we played my favorite game, Apples to Apples over a full bar of drinks. Although it's okay to have a drink while breastfeeding, I have not done so yet. I was the designated walker.

I had otameal and a banana on sunday for breakfast while everyone slept in. For lunch, we went to Gillies, which was listed on the web as vegan friendly and more than one person recommended it to us. Hubs and e shared vegan buckwheat pancakces but found them to be really dense and dry. I had a tofu, black bean breakfast burrito with soy cheese, tomatoes and corn. We shared a side of fried potatoes that were super yummy. Hubs drank coffee and i drank hot herbal tea as we watched the rain pour from the sky. With all of the time spent outdoors, we were glad that the rain held off until after the conference was over.
