Brushing your teeth with bicarbonate of soda...

Tastes horrible!

I tried adding cinnamon to it, like in 'How It All Vegan' but it couldn't mask the awful, awful taste. If I want to make my own toothpaste I'll have to get some peppermint oil or something stronger than just cinnamon! I ran out of toothpaste today, which along with my childlike curiosity lead me to using the bicarbonate of soda. I bought some Weleda toothpaste, which I have yet to try.

Also today I took a break from my studenting to make miso gravy, since going vegan I haven't come across any good gravy and although I'm more of a brown sauce fan gravy doesn't go askew on mashed potatoes. I was surprised at how gravy-like this actually tasted considering it had soya sauce in it, I was impressed. It thickens up really nicely too. I would prefer if it went a slightly darker brown, mine turned out fairly light but it tasted great so I'm not going to complain!
