I manage a small team, and we're going through a lot right now so I've been buying lunch each week. I'm trying to be the supportive boss and buy them for they want, but it sucks. (It's from office funds, not my own money)

Last week they wanted fast food, and couldn't be persuaded to eat Burger King so I could get an impossible Whopper. We settled on McDonald's.

Today is pi Day, so I thought I'd get them pizza. I got garlic bread sticks for myself. I didn't see anywhere to customize, but they came covered in Parmesan. I probably should have known, but ugh.

I just want to enjoy something if I'm going through the trouble of getting the food. Now I'm sad. Anyways, thanks for reading my rant.

Edit: I told my husband about the incident, and I came home to freshly baked homemade vegan chorizo pizza and flowers. ๐Ÿฅฐ

Sorry to hear that OP. It's tough being vegan out there in a carnist world. :(

If you ever find yourself in Ottawa you're welcome to come over for some yummy homemade vegan conciliatory pizza. XD

Thanks. Vegans are such nice people.

I'm sure my husband would make me pizza if I ask.

In better news, last night we had a friend over, we made home made pretzel rolls and put impossible burgers on them. My friend who isn't vegan brought a home made vegan apple pie. She's planning to try some recipes to find the best for Thanksgiving because she knows how much I love apple pie.

Ooh, that sounds delicious! And right around Pi day too, so excellent timing! I'm making pecan pie myself today. :)
