tiggrrl posted about these Power Dream soy drink thingies that she claimed were extremely good. I tried a couple of them and couldn't decide whether I liked them or hated them. So I keep buying them, still trying to figure it out. It's weird, but that's how I am with soymilk and related products.
Anyway, I definitely don't care for the chocolate flavor -- too chalky, not chocolatey enough. The vanilla and chai flavors I definitely either love or hate; I'm not sure which. And the mango flavor reminds me a lot of orange juice, which I hate, yet I keep drinking the mango Power Dream. Go figure.
My tummy has been upset the last day or two (I have a theory that no one ever actually writes in journals about having diarrhea because they don't know how to spell it). So I guess it was kind of courting disaster when, to replace the packed lunch that I forgot, I bought myself a) some ready-to-eat macaroni and cheese, b) a ready-to-eat prepacked vegetarian sushi snack-pack, c) some fruit, and d) a mango Power Dream. The mac 'n cheese did NOT go over well with my tummy. I just ate the sushi and I'm waiting to find out how that's going to play. Meanwhile I'm wondering whether the soymilk drink will calm things down, make things worse, or have no effect.
In related news, I finally cleared out a whole *bunch* of really old food from the fridge. Dude, was that ever gross. Who knew old noodles could turn that color? But now the fridge looks all nice and spacious. It really isn't, which was the point of getting all that old stuff out. (I don't like having trash day be Monday morning. I never remember till very, very late on Sunday.)
Speaking of trash pickup, are they still on strike in Toronto? Man, that must be so icky, in the heat of summer and all. Ewww.
Wow, this was a pretty disgusting post, eh? ;)
