Yes, I know. I was going to take part in the 'vegan for a week' challenge with D, but reading about the vitamin K thing on line convinced me that this was not the time to do it. I've been keeping away from the green, leafy ones (though I did have spinach last night) in general, though.

We'll see tomorrow. My hematologist wasn't concerned when I brought it up. She wanted me to follow moderation in all things.
