Vegan for a month challenge


Just for fun (ha ha) I'm going vegan (well, actually, pescetarian, also known as a peskitarian) for a month. So far, actually very fun. I went to the local Mitsukoshi department store, which has an organic foods section, bought some soy milk and a few other things. Then I went to Mujirushi (MUJI), which has a very fun range of meal sets - I got Tom Yum Kun (spicy Thai soup), spring rolls (Vietnamese?) and Pad Thai (Thai fried noodles) and a whole lot of frozen shrimps to put in them all. Couldn't resist the do-it-yourself tiramisu kit as well - will try it with soy milk : )

Cooked gorgeous banana and blueberry whole-wheat pancakes this morning.

What's all this in aid of? Well, I just read two books:

"Skinny Bitch"

and

"The China Study"

Both very compelling. I also want to extend my cooking repertoire, and this seems a good way to do it (limits release creativity and all that).
