Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Just keep placing good veggie side dishes on the table and be patient. My brother-in-law lived on pork and beef and he's now 95% vegetarian and believe me he taunted me for over 20 yrs. Now and then he has a tuna sandwich so I'm proud to see the change. My sister has been now for 4 yrs. Keep trying .............DonnaPuterWitch <puterwitch wrote: I have said to the family that if they eat "beef" they should just eat dog or cat, what is the difference? I talk, they do not hear me. - Julie Braswell Tuesday, September 20, 2005 8:12 AM Re: Hello Group Hu JUlie That is exactly right. My kids and I have had this conversation before. We have talked about what if we had a pet cow or chicken, could we eat that type meat again. The answer was no. It is something to think about. Julie Hi Julie. :>) I saw something similar to this saying on a veg site the other night, and it has really stuck with me, deep down: Why do you say you love your pets And then love eating pets' friends for dinner? Whoa buddy. That is PROFOUND. Glad to see you here, too, Julie-- Hugs, Bron I hope we can retrain your hubby too. I'll ask mine for ideas on the subject!

I'll bet if you cook up a few dishes from our recipe files hubby will try them. I have my fingers crossed.....Donna Julie Braswell <abnjb wrote: Hi all, I am a newbie too. I am Julie and trying to go vegetarian. I have a resistant hubby and having a hard time. Meat just does not taste nor look good to me anymore. I am a registered nurse, mother of two kids and married 9 years to a wonderful man. I love my animals and love to cook and eat. Look forward to learning from this group. Julie ..
