A Little History

My freshmen year of college I found this amazing friend. We had all of the same classes, liked all of the same songs, same TV shows and same books. We had so much in common its hard to believe that we had one major thing different from each other, our diets. My friend has been a vegetarian her entire life. While I have enjoyed meat and diary products and meat and more meat my entire life. However being friends with a vegetarian can really broaden your horizons, especially once my friend became my roommate. Going grocery shopping became this exciting new experience for me because I could not wait to see what kinds of crazy things this girl would girl pick out next. From roots, to toferky and vegetables I had never even heard of. I have become captivated by this lifestyle, so much so that I am going to try it. Full fledged vegetarianism. No meat, and very little dairy (at this in time I refuse to give up coffee creamer). This blog will be to report my trials with becoming a vegetarian and will also include pictures and recipes of the different kinds of foods I'm eating these days. Just in case anyone else would like to try becoming a vegetarian or wants to hear about from someone who used to be a meat-eater. Here goes nothing ... Enjoy!
