Just after a glimmer...

I just purged my kitchen of all animal protein. No ice cream. No cheese. No cultured Irish and european butter. (The last being the only difficult item to surrender.)

I am officially back to vegan. I did it for seven years, I imagine I can do it again. I may at one point opt to reintroduce a few select animal proteins into my diet - but not for a while.

It's not a religious thing, it's a health thing. It didn't really help before, but I am hoping that this go round the exclusion of animal protein from my diet will help with the inflammation - and I already know it'll help with my kidneys.

Now comes the fun part - concocting things to eat!
