I 100% feel you on the veggie-loving tip because, though I eat meat (and love it), I can't get excited about eating it every day (which makes visits with the ultra-carnivorous family interesting, i.e. I just get stomachaches). I'm also a bit lactose intolerant, so most of my home cooking ends up on the vegan side. I guess a button will never define my eating... but man, do I get to eat good stuff, and so do you!Laura Georginahttp://www.laurageorgina.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1767690876465088738.post-66286671029891513972011-01-06T13:48:08.061+00:002011-01-06T13:48:08.061+00:00I'm so excited you started following me on twi...I'm so excited you started following me on twitter, you are hilarious!!!

Also, I love that picture ...I love your name tag!!<br /><br />Also, I love that picture with the squash. Its phallic properties are one of the main reasons I refuse to cook with it unless it's pre-cut. I just can't deal. Anyway, I feel like that picture perfectly sums up your attitude (and mine too!) toward health. Like...I like vegetables...sexified. <br /><br />Anyway, I love this post, and I don't think beer and veggies are mutually exclusive. You can do both -- and should be proud to!Rachel Wilkersonhttp://www.rachelwilkerson.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1767690876465088738.post-87127496823589652362011-01-05T02:10:04.793+00:002011-01-05T02:10:04.793+00:00I also love a good veggie and prefer them more tha...I also love a good veggie and prefer them more than meat as well. But that doesn't mean I could ever give meat or cheese up... like ever! And I feel the same way about being in the middle of the healthy eating world... I workout to be healthy but really limiting what I eat/drink and counting calories is not my thing.

I'm the same way, in that I eat meat at times, and certainly enjoy it (well cooked, that is), but most often eat vegetarian and will order tofu over chicken any day. My grandfather told all his golfing buddies that I was a vegan....he doesn't even know what veganism is. That silly comment made for a long holiday season defending what I eat, and I eat EVERYTHING for Christ's sake! <br /><br />Great post....I'm linking to this on my fbook. :DJesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17866056715870071695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1767690876465088738.post-54626343797998735592011-01-04T17:56:50.182+00:002011-01-04T17:56:50.182+00:00Good for you!

Fruit is way more acceptable, maybe because of the sweetness.

I love vetggies too but people assume that because I'm a vegan I'm some sort of crazed health nut and are surprised when I reach for sseconds (ok, thirds) of pasta! (with loads of veggies and tomato sauce, even thought that's technically a fruit, I could drink gallons of the stuff).<br /><br />Oh and would you share your gartlic roasted brussel sprouts?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1767690876465088738.post-81233837078420077972011-01-04T16:34:16.794+00:002011-01-04T16:34:16.794+00:00I feel the SAME way Gracie!!!

I think that is why this was such a tricky topic to write about!

Sure, food choices are a very personal thing, but for me, my food choices END at food choices. Does that make sense? :)<br /><br />I often feel like I'm in this weird area of the spectrum. I do love vegetables and healthy foods, which sometimes means I don't "fit in" to mainstream society. Then again, I oftentimes don't feel healthy *enough* to fit in in the healthy living blog world. But I've come to terms with the fact that THAT'S OKAY!<br /><br />I've got love for the vegans, the rawists, the gluten-free'ers, and even the so-often-scorned low carbers. That's just how I roll!Graciehttp://girlmeetslife.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1767690876465088738.post-40531940953714692032011-01-04T16:28:55.992+00:002011-01-04T16:28:55.992+00:00I love this!
