Bad Time for National Vegetarian Week
I see via Lighter Footsteps that this week is National Vegetarian Week. When I first saw the headline I thought someone was taking a page from the Buy Nothing Day book by scheduling it during an especially meat-centric time: the opening of the grilling season AKA Memorial Day (Yes, I know that that is not the purpose of the day! Yet, many many grills will be making an appearance that day...). But I see the Vegetarian Society is UK-based, so I'll excuse them from fighting the uphill battle here in the U.S.
Nevertheless, in the spirit of the week, I am going to be bringing a few extra veggies to any get-togethers I hit this weekend.
And I don't just mean ketchup...
Ewww Ketchup.
Actually I like the stuff, but plain veggies, or steamed, are better.
