It's Groundhogs Day Eve.
A time for serious introspection and contemplation.
Or not!
Anyway, you may all wish to congratulate me, I have been a vegetarian for exactly 1 MONTH!!
Here are the top three things I have learned during this month:
1. Hamburgers can appear in your dreams. Sometimes they even dance and sing.
2. Fresh spinach is really good. I don't know why I've been eating iceberg lettuce all these years. From now on all my salad greens will be spinach or other darker colored options.
3. Doing this has weirdly been the best diet ever. Giving up meat has made me much more aware of what else I am eating, since I am always looking for protein. I've given up soda, most candy, and a lot of the junkie kind of meals I used to eat. (spagettios, french fries, etc)
In addition to my ongoing vegetarian quest, Erin and I are competing in Frugal February. We're both trying to keep our expenditures under 100 for the entire month. That includes gas, food, entertainment, etc. Whenever I post, I will leave a running tally of how much I have left!!
Thanks for being so supportive. Getting to blog about all my goals motivates me so much. And keep sending me recipes!! I love them!!
