I haven't touched meat since I closed that book. My daughter decided to join me and gave up her pepperoni and bacon. I am surprised that I actually don't miss meat at all. I am not sickened that you crave a burger sometimes because I used to LOVE burgers. If you are interested go to www.vegcooking.com and you can order a free vegetarian starter kit which is a little magazine. It is from PETA but don't let that scare you off- it's got great information and recipes. Be prepared though because I don't think anyone could read it and ever eat meat again. |
Thanks, Nikki! You were the one who inspired this thread, but didn't wanna say that unless you responded
Thanks for that link...I think I may order that and just read it...and as you say, it'll maybe convince me to never eat meat again.
And PETA doesn't scare me at all..lol..one of my friends from HS is a member (correct term?) of PETA.
Thanks again, Nikki. I'm def going to check it out, and I hope you have a great meat-free Tofurkey Day tomorrow
