it’s been almost exactly a year since i decided to go vegan. and here’s how it’s going:

well, not all that much has changed since my last post about it. it still feels like the right thing and it’s easy for me to keep up with. i don’t think much about it, it feels quite natural and normal already.

i don’t feel like i am missing out on anything. even though i had a little phase of craving cheese. that stopped when i bought vegan cheese and made mac’n'cheese with it which tasted so chemically artificial that i don’t need it again soon.

and sometimes i would really like to eat a snickers bar when i’m on the go. i mean i could go buy vegan sweets and store them at home. but when i do that i always eat everything at once. that exact thing happened to six boxes of ice cream. they were gone within a couple days.

eating vegan means you have to plan well. like taking food to work. and i always have a cute bottle of soy milk in my bag.

i think i am not experimenting as much as i was in the beginning, when it was all new and exciting and i tried lots of new things. right now it feels like i am making the same things over and over. but maybe that’s gonna change again and i’ll feel more inspired to try different things.

what i absolutely love is when friends invite me for dinner and make the effort to cook delicious vegan things. i know it’s not easy for everyone. like my friend anne did the other day. she even made homemade tortillas. now that’s a way of showing love!

thanks for reading!
if you have any questions send them my way! are any of you vegans?

fyi: moldy tangerines are not party of my diet. just pretty to photograph.
