Ahhhhh!! I can’t believe it! I forgot to update my blog after Thanksgiving. Traditionally this holiday is centered around the inevitiable or in my case, inedible TURKEY! Since I have committed myself to this new diet and have been trying earnestly to stay away from eating meats, I knew Thanksgiving would be an interesting holiday this year. This was the first year I did not enjoy turkey during the holiday feast! I enjoyed mashed potatoes, stuffing, corn, bread, pumpkin pie, brocoli salad, and everything else, but no turkey. I thought that this might take away from the holiday, but to my surprise, my holiday was just as enjoyable as it has been in past years.
The real test will be at Christmas. Every year we always have a big, delicious holiday ham to feast on.
I guess since I have technically labeled myself as a flexetarian, I have the ability to consume meats at my own discression — lucky for me this even exists
