October 1:clap:
I am by no stretch of the imagination a vegetarian, but in honor of the day, I will be tomorrow.
Got any good recipes, suggestions?

Wow! I just looked at this website not five minutes ago, thanks to a special SoWaller who reminded me of it.
Recipe sounds good. Kinda reminds me of an eggplant fritter that I make.
Thanks, foodie!:wave:

Ok..today's the day. :eek:
I keep telling myself I can do this. I just had the discussion with Sunkist about how, in my old age, I like vegetables less and less. This is just sort of a little personal challenge. Wish me luck. Shel, wish I was going to Outback with you.

:wub:...my fav. Don't worry about me...I need meat!

My point is vegetarian is not all the healthy eating it is sometimes thought to be.

All things in moderation!

An all vegetarian diet actually makes me sick! I was raised on meat and diary so switching to beans and soy goes against decades and generations of physical conditioning!

You can say that again. The quivering mountainous bowl of jelly who was sitting next to me on the airline ordered a vegetarian meal!!!! Now how you can weigh over 300 pounds eating vegetarian is beyond me. :yikes:

Yes, you have. I just thought it would be a nice change from all the red meat I eat. And, I promised Mermy I'd sorta try to eat healthy for a while. I have decided that you cannot possibly be a vegetarian AND eat healthy. It's just not possible. :bang:At least not for me. :blush:
I just got a good lecture from my doctor today about how bad red meat is for you and that I should eat more fish. Then, he told me he went to Outback last night and had a big ole steak!!!!!!!!
I tell you, it's been a day of conflict for me!!

In that case, my dear DD, you need a good stiff drink. Distilled from the finest grains. Vegetarianism at its best. :wave: (just watch the points!)

Long live Princess Kate! (You might want to explain Humanitarianism to her...)

My brother pointed out to me that in all the dinosaur cartoons, the big herbivores had to constantly wander around eating the tops off trees. The T-Rex would just go eat a buffet of little creatures and go to sleep for a few days. His point was that it's too much work to be a vegetarian--you have to eat all the time.

I'm going to eat a caveman and go to sleep.
