I’m on day 4 without any meat and it has been fairly easy. It took me forever to go grocery shopping on Sunday because I actually had to read labels and think about meal combinations more than before. I am definitely facing one major challenge: I am a graduate student (read: dirt poor & crazy busy) and the frozen meatless entrees like Morningstar Farms are reeeaally expensive. Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions for inexpensive and quick vegetarian meals?

I don’t know anyone else my age (I’m 22) who is as obsessed with politics as myself. Last night I posted a blog explaining “the first 100 hours” for my politically uninvolved and uninterested friends. At least some of them read it! SUCH a dork! haha….
the kids in the pic are my baby cousins. We have a Democratic Congresswoman in the family (in pic, Carolyn McCarthy, D-NY), along with a former union lobbyist, a NASA global warming researcher, and several devoted long time campaign volunteers. It’s in the blood. ;-)
