i am struggling here to find myself or at least come up with a new somewhat accurate name.

i can't really be a blossoming vegetarian because while i no longer eat meat (sorry chris and deb, i am off organic humanely farmed meat now too, so i can't come for dinner anymore, but i can come for dessert!), i also don't eat vegetables except salads (and those not very often either). sooooo... this puts me in a word defining quandry, what do i call myself?...a non-meat eater? a meatless person? meat-free? an occasional saladatarian?, they all sound stupid. so last night i ate a vegie burger and tonight i ate potato perogies and peas. just like when i was a kid, i fed most of the peas to tom, bonnie and chicklet, except my mom isn't around to yell at me now. but the point is, i did make them and i did actually eat some of them just not as many as the dogs. now i guess i can qualify as a possible vegetarian in training. plus i made enough peas and perogies to have again tomorrow, so three dinners in a row with some kind of vegie might just let me fit in a somewhat limited vegetarian role....oh! i can eat beans on toast on friday, and tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich on the weekend and pretty soon i will hit a whole week of some kind of vegies on my plate. i don't really miss eating meat all that much, penny, ellie and percy have made that part easy but gosh it is hard to think up stuff for supper when i really don't eat many vegetables either.

sigh, if i had vegetarian chef here, it sure would be much easier....by the way, the vegie burger was gross.
