I had typed up a whole rant about Canada Post but it got eaten. Here's a summary.

1) CP has lost a letter that they tried to deliver and said would be at SGR Lawtons for pickup on Tuesday. It's still missing and being traced.

2) Went to Scotia Square Lawtons to see if the missing letter was there and they found another package for us that we did not get a delivery notice for.

3) Found a package sitting in front of my apartment door this morning. They didn't buzz our apartment or knock to let us know we had a delivery.

ARGH!

Maybe your super brought it up? I don't think CP would bring it to your door.

Anyway don't gripe about Canada Post to loudly or you'll never see you mail again!!!!! ; ) (Okay, I'm only half joking about that...)

'Ouise, I hope you're feeilng better. I usually gargle with salt water for cankers. It stings at the time, but you feel a lot better later.

Maybe your super brought it up?

Super doesn't live in this building so it's really doubtful. I hate to complain to them but they seem to have a lot of conflicting policies about 1) which outlet to take our mail to if were not here 2) when to bother to leave a delivery notice and 3) whether to just leave stuff lying around.

The letter that they have misplaced has cheques in it. I think my parents should have sent it registered, especially at this time of year.

1) which outlet to take our mail to if were not here

Mmmm, I have usually three different ones they go to and it always seems to be at the most inconveinient. It depends on the driver, as much as on where you are.

Yikes!

Thanks for the canker suggestions. I use salt water and Kanka, but Kanka hurts a lot. I'll check out the Fletcher's stuff.

I just went to the grocery store and bought some frozen prepared foods, as well as some soy flour. I'm going to do some baking with the soy flour, which will help with getting enough protein. I can do this.

Megan, how frustrating! I hope they find your letter.

'Ouise, I have Moosewood's Low Fat Cookbook, and in the back they have a list of all the vegan recipes it contains. There are quite a few, about 12 entrees, 20 side dishes and soups, about 10 stews. Would you like to borrow it? I haven't made a huge number of dishes form this cookbook, but so far, they've all been nummy.

Also, I had a roommate who went vegan for a while, and soy cheese saved her sanity.

Hey. Megan, how many postcards do you want?

Ouise, if you frequently get cankers try switching to a SLS free toothpaste like Tom's of Maine. And don't use mouthwash - alcohol will only irritate it.

Joyce, in the dreams, kept touching Buffy, or handing her things. They made a point of it. I think that she's good, or at least Buffy's subconscious. Giles is dead, and a manifestation of the First.

Oh, yes, saw TTT this afternoon. It did not seem like a 3 hour long movie.

And I bought 4 pairs of shoes.

try switching to a SLS free toothpaste

What's SLS?

sodum laurel sulfate. It's a common surfactant, but some people with chronic canker sores improve when they switch.
