October is VeganMoFo (Vegan Month of Food)

I’ve noticed that October is VeganMoFo, or, the Vegan Month of Food.  In honor of VeganMoFo, many folks who maintain blogs are trying to post as many Vegan-related posts during the month as possible.  While I am a Vegetarian and not fully Vegan, I do embrace the idea of being Vegan.  I still find it too difficult to eliminate dairy from my diet.  Perhaps I will give it a try in the name of VeganMoFo.  Today I had a vegan lunch, but I did have some milk in my coffee this morning.  The milk in the coffee will be fairly difficult for me… I’ve tried soy milk in my coffee, and I just don’t like the taste as much.

I read an article today that gives 8 reasons to stop drinking milk now.

After reading this article, I feel like I could exclude milk for at least a month.

Deciding to skip out on dairy will change my diet a little bit, but any change in diet typically leads to creativity and innovation.  Anything that is forced to survive in a minimalist fashion must be creative in order to continue to survive.

Now I’m going to go and look for some recipes to help celebrate VeganMoFo.  If you have any suggestions, post ‘em in the comments or send me a link!

Thanks, and happy VeganMoFo!
