My excitement level is growing. I made the commitment to do this "Vegan Thing" for Lent, but now I am looking forward to it. While my daughter was shopping for a book at Barnes & Noble I was in the cookbook section looking for ideas. While checking out I saw a book called The Veganist, which I bought, and am not learning all the ins and outs of a plant based diet.
I have ten days until it begins and I am torn between wanting to start right now and making a pilgrimage to the Salt Lick to get one last "all-you-can-eat" BBQ.
I am nervous about trying to navigate my business trips and eating at conferences while maintaining the Vegan commitment. But others do it, so I figure I can do it, too.
The family is going out to one of my favorite places for dinner. I love the Pot Roast Sandwich at this restaurant and since Lent has not begun I figure I will eat my comfort food. But there is a nagging desire to go with a big salad and some whole grain pasta.
My guess is I go for the Pot Roast!
**UPDATE-- yep, Pot Roast Sandwich, cheese on my salad, and gellato for dessert. But even though Lent has not begun, I did feel guilty. I think I will do fine once I start!
