I'm going to try to give up meat....need advice
Vallerina replied to Vallerina's topic in The Bonfire
Plants are a whole lot more defenseless than animals are. Oh geeze....Where's that eye-rolling icon, Sangiro??? When I see corn crying because it's mother was taken away for someone to eat, then I'll have this argument with you. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning -

My uncle is vegetarian, and my grandma makes him special tofu dishes sometimes. I've tried it, and I don't like. It tastes funny. Maybe if I pour a bunch of hot sauce on it.... There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning -

Holy moly! Wow! Thanks for the ton of great advice! I leave to go get some tea, and I come back to a plethora of information! I'll have to go buy some cookbooks! I am not planning on going vegan any time soon because that would be too much of a lifestyle change right now. I plan on buying just soy milk, though, for when I drink it at home and the organic eggs. Short answer: I don't need to eat meat to live, so why should I? Long answer: I'm almost finished with a book that freeflybella recommended to me, and it changed my thoughts on it. It seems selfish to kill an animal just because you like the way it tastes. Like he said, it used to be a necessary evil. It's no longer necessary, so now it's just evil. I guess picturing a pig never seeing the sun or touching soil and eating him in my Egg McMuffin just seems silly and grotesque. We've all seen images of slaughterhouses, and most of us get grossed out. Another great quote of his: Perhaps we are getting uneasy about our mistreatment of animals because we should be uneasy about it. It just seems really silly to kill a defenseless animal because you like how it tastes. It seems selfish. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning -

Oooh...I could always go to Trader Joes after work one day. I know there's one somewhere in the city. I'll just have to find it.... The grocery stores I went to don't seem to have a wide variety. I want to go meatless, but I can't see myself eating a Boca burger every night for the rest of my life. There has to be more! I'll have to go Google that cookbook!

I want to stop eating meat completely. I'm going to let myself have tuna/salmon for awhile, but I'd like to give those up, too, eventually. I already take a multivitamin, but I know that I still have to eat right. My main concern is when I have my period, my body is weaker and needs protein and iron. Are there cheap, meatless alternatives to giving my body what it needs during that time? Are there any other tips to starting in the meatless world? Are there good places to buy food? What else has helped? There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning -
That's why you're number 1!!!! Maybe I'll do a fun cross country at Richmond this weekend...hmm.... Wildblue is Black Morty Rackham. He's trying to learn how to pick up pirates, too. What a weirdo. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

She should? I know tons of jumpers from the Midwest who go to camps in the winter. When the season starts up again in the spring, their newly gained skills are shown. You may get a little rusty, but that's no big deal. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

I think Remi is upset.... {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{VIBES}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Remi would be much better if he liked good donuts and not Krispy Kremes. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

I have weak ankles. I've never broken them, but I've sprained them numerous times in gymnastics, and some doctors told me that I have tendonitis. It's not a major cause for concern, but I do have some soreness after a hard run. I am also wanting to jump with good ankle supports if crwmike is accurate in his description of the canopy landing like bricks! I used to use the Ace brand of ankle supports years (over 10) ago, but I'm not sure if that's the best and most helpful. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

What would have been different now if he would've been president? There are even arguments that it may not have happened at all if Gore was president (I'm not arguing that one, I'm just saying...) You will never know if it would've been better or worse with the alternative. Trying to say that you do know for a fact...well, then you are kidding yourself.

What? Do I look like a freeflier??? Heck no! I'm a bell-flyer! And, I've changed again. It looks like I'll be there Friday and possibly Saturday!

What does it mean to win the "War on Terror"?
Vallerina replied to narcimund's topic in Speakers Corner
I'm in complete agreement. Yes, it used exaggeration many times to show certain aspects of the government. The first time I read it, I didn't really like it because I thought it was too exaggerated. But, that's getting off topic...winning the war on terror....umm....I don't know because most can agree that it's not just taking out Osama Bin Laden....

I have NO talent, but will you teach me anyways???? Yay, now I'm all excited to go learn some crw! You drink Diet Pepsi, right, Mike? I'll have my car loaded with some!
