Day 216 Back Up Off My Veggie Plate

Today was my second day of some sort of conference hullabaloo and the best part about the day was most for surely, the veggie wraps. They were so full of avocado and other wondrous veggies, that I ate two of them, they were perfect and I'm going to make some at home this weekend. I do have to verbally reprimand those veg heads, who took two wraps before all of the other veg heads were served. Every good vegetarian knows that there are usually only a limited number of veggie plates created, thus, the polite and right thing to do is to wait until everyone has been served, as I did. If a meat eater runs out of food, they can eat anything, but if a vegetarian runs out of food, they cannot eat off of the meat eater's side. Therefore, rule number two is, if you are not a vegetarian, eat the meat that was created for you, if you want a veggie plate, order one. If you are a meat eater and would like a veggie version after all the vegetarians have been served than by all means eat a veggie wrap. Thank you for allowing me to share these sometimes unspoken but always relevant warnings.

Day 75 Local, Fresh, Seasonal Does Not Spell Fast Food

I'm too busy to cook, I'm too busy to eat, I'm really too busy to be sitting here in the blogosphere, but I'm loyal if nothing else. I still have not decided what to so about the retreat food tomorrow, Perhaps I'll look at the menu online to determine the health factor and since it's free, it's not an issue of spending money I don't have. How different is this from a potluck? I don't know, it just depends on the fresh factor, the type of food, and the preparation. Am I being silly? I just don't want to ruin 75 days of hard work, by eating something that doesn't jive with my philosophy and my challenge. OK, so if I eat the food or not, I'm most definitely taking snackage for myself, my co-worker, and the kiddos. Maybe some fruit, some trail mix, cookies, crackers? I'm sure that since they will have the kids swinging from vines and stuff that they will have water for the sweaty little beggars, I would hate for them to waste away from dehydration before I get them home to their parents. I just took a break to look at the menu and it says local, wholesome, and natural, they have a seasonal menu too. I don't know if the three meals are already chosen or if they have vegetarian options, it all sounds really doable, so I'll just have to follow my judgment and my gut as to the rules of this challenge.
