A few weeks ago I decided not to keep desserts around the house anymore (well, mostly), and strange things have been happening. Instead of constantly craving sweets I am dying for healthy foods. In fact, a few nights ago I roasted kale for a midnight snack!
Imagine my delight (I almost peed my pants!) when I found 101 Cookbooks, a blog that focuses “primarily on natural, whole foods and ingredients—vegetarian recipes that are good for you and for the planet.” I feel like I’ve hit the recipe jackpot! Now if only I can convince my husband to eat like this. Maybe if I serve everything with a side of steak…

Interesting review of “The Vegetarian Myth” here: http://urbansustainableliving.com/the-vegetarian-myth-book-review.html (Not that I totally agree with her, but her health info seems to be very well researched.) BTW: Patti Moreno is AWESOME, in case you’ve never heard of her.
Another good info site if you’re wondering about health: http://www.mercola.com/
I’m just sayin’, vegetarianism isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Soy, in particular, is bad news especially if you have a tendency towards thyroid problems.
—- just tryin’ to be helpful :O)
I agree with Steph, I’m not a fan of soy products. But then again I eat dairy products, and I don’t like those either haha. But there are plenty of good vegetarian recipes without soy stuff in it.
I could never go 100% vegetarian, because I like meat too much! But, I figure throwing a few vegetarian meals into the mix would be a good way to get more veggies in my diet.
Thanks for the links Steph. I’m off to check them out!
Roasted kale is one of my favorite snacks!
101cookbooks is a staple for me. I love Heidi’s photography as much as her recipes.
Vegetarianism isn’t for everyone, nor should it be. But eating more vegetables is always excellent for your health :)
Hi – I just wanted to let you know I love your blog. Can’t remember exactly how I came across it but it (and some other design blogs) has inspired me to start blogging again.
Circumstances caused me to take a huge break from my blog – something I loved doing dearly – and I thought I’d never get back to it…until I came across Wit & Whistle. You have been an inspiration to me and I thank you.

Thanks PJ! It’s great that you started blogging again. Keep it up! : )
