The Great Vege Experiment of 2008

So after much discussion and procrastination, I've decided to try out a vegetarian diet for a week, possibly longer. This adventure into new culinary space begins this very Thursday, so that I can collect the many ingredients I'll be needing to keep myself both alive, and interested in food whilst the delicious meat purges itself from my system.

I won't be going totally nuts with curry recipes, for those of you who are thinking of turning up to my place wearing gas masks. Michael and Talia are both providing me with vegetarian recipes; Talia because she's a vegetarian, and Michael because he was once accosted by a starving Buddhist selling books, and figured he could just add meat when the cycle of Karma wasn't looking.

I'll be keeping a diary on how this goes, with notes on how my health improves, declines or remains stubbornly indifferent to my valiant efforts. Stay tuned!
