Guess what? We're going vegetarian...

Yeah, you heard right...I've given up eating animals.

It's been almost three months since my "vegetarian week" experiment and I'm still happily not eating meat. I like it.

For starters, I feel pretty good. Not only does not eating meat cut out, well...the meat, it also forces you to think harder about what you're eating. This has resulted in me simply eating better things.

One of the reasons I'd never gone vegetarian before is that I love to cook and I felt that a meatless diet would restrict my culinary creativity. However, to the contrary, I've just had to work harder and become more creative with my menus. So, cooking vegetarian has really been a new kitchen challenge and it's kind of fun. Who knew?

All that to say that the recipes I'll post from now are gonna be free of our furry friends.

Wish me luck!
