I've been gradually going to a vegetarian diet. Kicking and spitting. Found a great source of protein too. Shelled hemp seeds. 11% protein in 2 tablespoons. And not that much oil either, and what there is, it's omega 3 oil. Also it provides all the amino acids.
Lost 3 pounds so far, but that is not why I'm doing it. According to the book I'm reading a meat diet creates toxins etc that slow a person down, depletes your energy etc. Not seen that extra energy yet. and it is suppose to reverse heart disease issues. And I'm hoping it will do my thyroid some good. I have to watch out for vegetables that are not good for the thyroid...which I didn't know about.
Cleaned out the garden today and will carry away the debris tomorrow. There is one zuchini plant that refuses to call it quits and I want to support it as long as I can...plenty of flowers on it and a few zuchs still growing...good for her...it.
Honeysuckle vines remind me of the deep South...and a Hawthorne quote...Romance and poetry, ivy, lichens, and wallflowers, need ruin to make them grow.
