I've traveled a bit this summer. I attended a technology conference in Galveston, Texas in June. Galveston is a historic beach town with it's own charm and lots of great seafood restaurants. It was very difficult, however, to find vegan-friendly restaurants. I ordered spinach enchiladas without cheese and they put cheese in them anyway. I finally went to the grocery store and bought food that I could prepare in my hotel room. It was actually easier than I expected to eat well on the Alaskan cruise my family enjoyed at the end of June. There were plenty of fresh fruits available, and although the vegetables were difficult to get without oil, there were at least vegetables. They provided soy milk, and were very solicitous each evening at dinner by showing me the menu for the next day so that I could make choices and ask for modifications. The sorbets I had for dessert were so delicious, that I got a sorbet machine and am making them at home. I will post some recipes when I have experimented more and found ways to cut down on the sugar. Fruit is such a wonderful dessert all by itself, however, and being on the ship with the abundance of fruit was a treat.
