All about food!

How easy would be to change one part of your life. If it was easy everyone would be Barbie Playboy perfect with a PhD and the greatest job ever. Insert sarcastic tone with the last sentence. Changing habits is hard so I am going to try to change one small habit. Instead of the same old same old food choices every day I want to eat all vegetarian one day a week down here in the south. Here in Richmond Virginia gravy is on every menu at every restaurant or at least it seems to me. This blog was originally intended to have everything and a whole lot food. I love food, it's fun but after working in the restaurant industry for the last six months it is the owning side is not for me. So much food waste make really high food costs, long hours of prep time, all the reality of food service isn't really me after all. Dreaming of opening a food truck would not have been my cup of tea it after all. I'm lucky to learn that lesson working at a food job instead of buying a food truck! So instead of cooking food I just want to eat food. So looking towards the next six months I will be planning a series of how to eat vegan in Richmond Virginia. Can it be done walking into any old restaurant. Can you do vegan through a drive-through? Can you go to a diner, a mom-and-pop restaurant, a chain restaurant what food choices can you make when you want to make a statement with your diet. Here in Richmond it's easy to eat pizza, tacos, hamburgers and especially barbecue but what about raw vegan and doing it without spending three hours cutting vegetables to eat one for meal. Can this choice be a quickie food option on the run and eating out? From what I have seen, it looks like vegan get judged a lot and I wonder is some of the judgement that the diet is just too hard to even try. But I think one day a week with no bacon and cheeseburgers would be great, how hard can it be? We will see!
