Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Looks like someone either tried to drive or was a pedestrian in Bethesda, Maryland. Most folks in DC treat pedestrians kindly, but I'm convinced that if they put a traffic camera at every intersection between the Bethesda and Friendship Heights Metro stations (about two miles or so. Friendship Heights is at the Maryland-DC border), Montgomery County would make HEAPS o' cash. Course, getting around Northern Virginia without a car is also a logistical nightmare. It's even worse than MoCo. Getting off topic slightly, I recently learned that the most pedestrian-hostile city in the US is the Orlando, Florida, area. Having grown up there, I was not at all surprised.

Strangely, I've gained weight since starting my plant based diet and one of the reason (animals first of course) was for health reasons (including weight loss). I've also started exercising at least 30 minutes every other day sometimes more. Anyway, I can't figure that one out.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2003 Report Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hi Kim, I also have a mixed bag household. I've been vegetarian for almost a year. My husband likes veg food, but also likes his meat. My two sons, ages 6 1/2 and 5, are both meat eaters, although they do like some of the veg food. My biggest hurdle is my mother-in-law, who lives with us. She is old fashioned in her eating beliefs, thinking a meat and dairy diet with veggies thrown in, is the healthy way to go. I'd like to get milk out of the house completely. I don't buy or cook meat, she does that. The hard part for me has been finding recipes that everyone likes, especially kids. I can learn to at least tolerate foods (tofu being one of them). Good luck to you, maybe we can learn from each other.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2003 Report Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hi, Laura. When my mother moved in, she was great about experimenting with meatless recipes or altering ones she had used for ages. But once she returned to work and became busy again, it all fell to me. My biggest problem is being organized enough to keep everyone satisfied. So I'm going to ask the meateaters to provide their own and cook their own. That way, all I have to do is plan the nonveg stuff. Plus, I'd like to get into the habit of cooking many meals over the weekend for the upcoming week so I'm not scrambling to find something to make for us besides pasta when I'm in a hurry. I'd like to get more variety into our nonveg meals. I hope to learn from you, too! k , " progressive7862 " <allens717@c...> wrote: > Hi Kim, > I also have a mixed bag household.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Hi Kim, I'm also new here and am part of a " mixed " family. Our home is vegetarian, I'm vegan, my daughter (almost two) has been vegetarian since birth and my husband eats meat. I do most of the shopping and nearly all the cooking and try to make things that we all can eat, like pasta. Or I make meals that can be made vegan without too much fuss (like veggie calzones - all have the same veggie filling, mine have tofu added and hubby's have cheese added). I'm in California which is really veggie friendly. Hopefully it will be okay for my daughter, but there will come a time when she asks about daddy's food. We only eat out about once a week, so she is rarely exposed to meat. I figure if I can get her to eat a lot of veggie staples at a young age (like tofu, which she loves) it will be easier later on.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 I also come from a mixed house...I must say it is hard to make everyone happy. I've been veg for 17 years and my husband is a meat eater but he is very supportive most of the time. He wants us to raise our 8 mos. old son, Skye, as a veg. which pleases me to no end. We have two older daughters 13 and 11( Kyra and Angelica respectively)they are meat eaters making strong strides to become veg. Their father(from a different marriage) adamantly disagrees. I am trying to keep peace and balance in my home...It's not easy that's for sure. I am glad I am not alone. This board is a life saver.
