hi all

i went thru this last year and decided it was best for me if i didnt eat out.......if i want to eat with a friend or relative, i cook at home.......yes i wish i could go out but i dont want to pay for a plate of chips whilst everyone else tucks in......

on a personal level.......i am getting tired and kinda upset that nearly every conversation with my mother has started coming around (again) to why am i a vegan, or she has read something about it.....my aunt (see email i did after christmas) has got to her, that i am being outrageous stupid and off my head by not being like everyone else.........
