Veggies

I have decided to change my eating habits from vegan to vegetarian (lacto-ovo).  In all honesty, it will both be easier for others and me when dining out, at a friend or family home and I miss yummy quiche with eggs, cheese and Morningstar sausages (veggie).  I will continue to focus on vegan fare while occasionally partaking of dairy and eggs.

Summer is winding down here in the Pacific Northwest.  We have moved down into the 80s from mid to high 90s.  I have heard from a few people that the forecast is 90s through October.  I do not believe it.  Autumn is my favorite time of year and if we have summer weather through October, I will miss my season of color!

Vegan in process

I have been a vegetarian for the past 3 years (in October). I have been working on being a vegan for the past 2 years. I continue to have trouble with dairy. Cheese is my downfall and I continue to eat it. I also eat seafood. Technically I can’t be called a vegan. I am putting myself down every time I eat pizza with cheese on it or have a veggie sandwich with cheese. I feel like a failure when I can’t adhere to veganism. I am coming to realize that maybe I should be labeled vegetarian and if I choose not to eat the dairy products…all the better for my body and the planet.
