Veggie Tales

I've done it....I have proclaimed it to the world [!]... (well, at least on Facebook and Twitter, and now, here...)

I am a vegetarian!

Officially.

I knew it was only a matter of time before I decided to buckle down and actually do it once and for all. I've been looking at a few websites and blogs in search of recipes and such, and I am actually really excited about being a Veg. [Yay, Me!] Beyond that, my spiritual evolution has allowed me to realize that I'd just rather eat food that comes from Mama Nature herself, anyway. Everything we could ever possibly need is provided by the Earth...in abundance[!]....No chemicals or processing necessary. Plus, I don't care to eat any more dead meat. I'm cool.

I'll be honest, I'm not sure if I'm ready to go straight vegan though. I do love me some cheese, butter, and eggs (cage-free of course)! I still have to do a bit of research on the latter, however...cuz at this point, from what I understand, most eggs are "blanks"...meaning no baby chicken embryo chillin' (literally) in my fridge. And, as far as cheese and butter go...you don't have to kill any cows or goats to get it. As long as the cheese is from happy cows...I'm good. Plus, I'm not convinced that soy cheese is so delicious either. *ack*

But, like I've said a million times before...it's a journey. I'll get there [vegan] one day I'm sure.

Annnnnyway, for those of you who are interested...here are a few of the websites & blogs I came across......and found interesting (cuz that's important *wink*)

By Any Greens Necessary {BAGN for short}

Vegan Yum Yum

Fatfree Vegan Kitchen

When I was reading thru blog posts on BAGN, I found out about a cookbook called Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry. It sounds interesting (and my hope is that the recipes are muy delicioso). I'll have to go to Barnes & Noble and check it out. I figure this...if there is a recipe for macaroni and cheese...that's vegan...and it tastes so good you wanna fight somebody...I'll go vegan in a heartbeat!

Peas & Love, y'all!

  1. I've been vegan for over a year now. I have no idea why people think it's hard! It is one of the easiest things I do in my every day life! Easier than putting myself through college!!! I was vegetarian in hgh school, then I got out of it. March of )* I went vegetarian again and 1 month later I went vegan because I felt it wasn't enough just being vegetarian. (NO JUDGEMENTS!!! I am proud of your vegetarianism!) Thanks for being a follower of my blog. It means a lot.
