Going Vegetarian - as of today
Okay, so last night on date night my husband basically says to me "Hey babe, I am going to go vegetarian for a month... but you don't have to."
The hell?
See.... my man is a fricking carnaviore. Like he hates veggies. So... let's just say it's out of the blue. He's doig it for a few reasons. A) he wants to cut down on red meat eventually. B) to see if he can do it and C) to prove to all of those holier than thou vegetarians that it isn't that hard. And since I support my man: I decided to go vegetarian too.
One month. We end this at Thanksgiving.
I can do this. Really I can.
Help me.

The posibilities are endless. Just be happy with each other, and love each other. Thickness or thin.
You don't happen to go to a chiropractor in the Glebe do you? My ex works downtown and she just went into vegan/cleansing mode. First thing my daughter said when I picked her up for the weekend was 'Please tell me you have meat in the fridge'
Good thing bacon isn't meat.
thanksgiving is 2 months away
She's a canuk. Thanksgiving is in October.
Good luck to you both J-Cat =)
Good luck with your meat free diet. If you need me I'll be pan frying a t-bone steak in olive oil with mushrooms and onions.
Good luck with the change of diet. It's not all that hard really. Mrs.plato and I go through phases of vegetarianism a few times a year, just out of a craving for veggies & fruit. It's especially easy since you're only ditching meat and not eggs and cheese.\r

Oh, and if you're interested here is a really good (kinda fast) cookbook \"Vegetarian Express\" Give it a looky.\r
\r
One of the things I like about this cookbook is it gives you a pantry list of all the things you'll need from the store. It gives you a break down of calories, protein, cholesterol, carbs....\r

J, you know if you can't stick with it, it's still a good thing to take time off of meat. Take a break from meat for a week, or more and then when/if you want to go back, go. It's not a law that you have to stay meatless everyday. \r

I have a trick I do....it's sooooo good when you need to taste BACON!....lol Liink: http://morningstarfarms.com/product_detail.aspx?family=934&id=352\r

I make egg salad, tomato sandwich and use the fake bacon. Just a little bit goes a long way. It helps give that ymmm taste for those times of need. Don't over due on the fake meat foods, loaded with funky stuff.\r

All the best to you two = )
