Inspired by Alicia Silverstone's "The Kind Diet" and Michael Pollan's "In Defense of Food," we want to experience the vegan lifestyle to improve our health, boycott animal suffering, and reduce our carbon footprint.

Day of Rest

I did not cook today.  The most work I had to do to ingest something was boil a pot for tea.  Exhausting.  Oh, I also peeled an orange, but I wouldn't consider that cooking.  Basically, today was a stress-free, work-free, restful day.  I even got some Vitamin D while reading a book in a nearby park!

Ya know what else I did today?  I saved the lives of .27 animals.  Ok, I'm not sure how PETA gets this stat, but a vegetarian can save 100 animal lives each year!  By the end of this 2 month experiment, I will have saved at least 16 adorable animals!  I could even start a farm with 16 animals.  I'd like to order 4 horses, 2 cows, 2 pigs, 2 chickens, 2 sheep, 2 alpacas, and 2 barn cats.  I can do without the goats - they're bullies.


Day 51 Food Journal:
-Kashi cereal with banana, flax, rice milk
-cookie dough babies, chocolate peanut butter
-french bread with dipping oil
-leftover roasted veggies with rice
-orange, babies (see: A Modest Proposal) - get in my belly!
