The Lazy Vegan Blog

For some reason ...

Comments are completely defunct. I can approve new comments from readers, but can't reply to them. Sincerest apologies to those who have posted on the "militant vegans" post especially, which...

Go ... fish?

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 17:14:00 +0000

I'm still writing The Lazy Vegan on occasion, and at some point may pick it up on a more regular basis, but I just wanted to check in with everyone and say that my need for fish has disappeared...

Bah, Humbug!

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 24 Dec 2009 21:22:00 +0000

I'll say this clearly. I am not a Christian (although I respect my Christian friends' and relatives' beliefs as long as they don't "proselytize" all over mine ;-) ). That said, what is it with...

The fish is ...

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 15:37:00 +0000

... swimming away from my diet, for the most part. I posted a bit ago here that to my chagrin, I felt I had to include some fish in my diet suddenly (after more than 25 years with nary a carnivorous...

Two "flexitarians" in the house?

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 20:40:00 +0000

Hmm. Okay; so I am still feeling a little bit guilty about doing the fish thing a couple of times a week, but I also realized something else. I apparently have had a "veggie" impact on my boyfriend,...

Gimme a break: Soda's not "food"

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:29:00 +0000

There's a TV ad (in the US) running right now against the proposed soda tax where a (slender, natch) "mom" begs the government not to impose it because it's already expensive to "feed" families and...

More protein, please

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 20:39:00 +0000

This flies in the face of everything I truly knew as a vegan for 25 years, but as a 40-something woman, protein seems to be of paramount importance all of a sudden. Things have changed drastically....

Just like any religion …

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 19:01:00 +0000

… vegetarianism has its zealots who think that their way is the only right way to think, to be, to live. (Not all, just a few.) It's one thing to know unshakably that something is right for you, but...

Starting to be convinced

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 20:38:00 +0000

About three weeks into this new "not quite vegan" lifestyle, the psychological struggles are starting to abate and I'm just starting to admit that darn it, I feel better physically than I have...

Disappointment

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 16:58:00 +0000

I know this blog doesn't have a huge following, but dammit! One of the things I'm struggling with is that I feel as though I've "let people down" by having to include fish in my diet again. And...

One thing about the grocery bill …

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 22:29:00 +0000

… is that the "fish twice a week" thing actually is less expensive than the completely vegan diet (even from scratch, as I cook), because I eat a lot less and rarely get hungry. So I like the...

More on this "new" identity

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 16:35:00 +0000

It's strange. I've never been of the opinion that *everyone* can be vegetarian or vegan, because each of us has different dietary needs. So I'd be the first one to tell someone in my shoes who has...

A change

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 14:28:00 +0000

This "lazy vegan" isn't quite one any longer. For the past couple of weeks, I've felt the need to add a little fish to my diet, this after more than 25 years without anything of the sort. So I guess...

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 18:39:00 +0000

It was brought to my attention yesterday that there was no "comments" section in my blog. (I don't get very many comments anyway, so I didn't notice. ;-) ) I've been tweaking my blog set up a little...

When life's a struggle

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 21:24:00 +0000

Tough economic times are ahead for a lot of people right now because of the state the economy is in, and it's no different for vegans, either. Yes, we can eat more cheaply than most people, but we...

Are there any "cants" when it comes to being vegan?

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 19:17:00 +0000

Being vegan is a very personal choice, and if you've decided to adopt this lifestyle, you might think that now, you're suddenly bound by a strict set of rules that says you can never have animal...

Fitting in

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 00:29:00 +0000

One of the things that being vegetarian or vegan for most of my life has taught me is that it's really okay to be different. I came to vegetarianism relatively early in life (18), which is just about...

Keeping things secret?

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 19:31:00 +0000

Most of the thinking I do about being a vegan or vegetarian comes from, of course, my perspective and those of my friends who share this lifestyle with me. But I've noticed that there's kind of a...

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 00:00:00 +0000

If you've been to visit my website or have read my blog before, you probably know that I ascribe to something called the "Lazy Vegan" lifestyle. And as far as finances go, I keep my grocery budget,...

A "little slip"?

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 16:21:00 +0000

I've occasionally heard vegans and vegetarians talk about having "a little slip," or sometimes a major one, if they jump off the vegan or vegetarian bandwagon temporarily and indulge in the land of...

More on eating for about a dollar a day, "lazy vegan" style

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Sun, 01 Feb 2009 07:37:00 +0000

Yesterday, I posted that I ate comfortably and well on a little more than a dollar a day without having to cook much. I can do that because I buy only whole ingredients (except for an occasional...

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 19:23:00 +0000

With the economy slumping, we're all looking for ways to tighten our belts. A recent widely publicized blog had a young couple trying to eat on a dollar a day each to see what it was like and to...

noreply@blogger.com (The Lazy Vegan) — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 18:50:00 +0000
