Welcome to October... Also known as Vegetarian Awareness Month!
So, in celebration, I've decided to pledge to be Vegetarian for the month.
Today was day one.
Because I have a near and dear friend who is a vegetarian, I've had some help in making this decision and also sticking to it. Yesterday she asked me, 'what about gelatin?" I was pretty sure it wouldn't be a big issue. I probably wouldn't even run into any gelatin-y foods. Wrong.
Starbursts have gelatin! So do marshmallows... But that was a little more obvious, and I blame my newbie status on that error.
So. Not bad. My first day and I screw it up (potentially.) I guess I've decided that gelatin is okay, but I'll try to be more conscious of it going forward.
As for today's nummy veggie foods: Said friend and I went to the Herkimer in Minneapolis to enjoy a veggie entree and FREE dessert! (In celebration of World Vegetarian Day.). I had a fabulous veggie sandwich on foccacia, and a pumpkin bread pudding. Yummo.
