March 18, 2008

I’ve been meat-free for more than a month now and I’m happy to report that I haven’t cheated yet. I thought I wouldn’t last a week on this new diet but it seems like semi-vegetarian lifestyle actually suites well with me (I call it “semi” because I still eat fish. Come on, I can’t be that good!).

I hosted a birthday party for my sister the other day and presented a meat-free dinner to a skeptical crowd. Although we had a couple of meat-and-potato guys, dishes were a hit. Even the manly men enjoyed a fresh Nicoise Salad …

    Hi Saori,

    I’m glad you enjoyed the night! You are so blessed to have so many great friends in your life : – ) Thank you for allowing me to be part of the special day.

    I’ve been trying to send you the pictures but the file is too big. I’ll save on a CD and give it to you!

    Love,
    Hirono
