I'll just copy and paste..

We were having eggs for breakfast and my DS who's 3 pointed to his eggs and said, "They're dead, dead babies. They can't have babies." His older sister explained to him that eggs are baby chickens, never to be born. I know, I know, I just try not to think about those things while eating eggs. I'm a vegetarian, but would love to cross over to veganism. Yeck!There goes my appetite..

If you want to go Vegan, take it in steps that make sense for you and your family. It isn't so hard to get children and girl teens to go Vegan; a little harder to get boys and husbands. For Vegan recipes, I like the following cookbooks: The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook and Vegan Vittles by Joanne Stepaniak. I also like the Christian Vegan Cooking Yahoo group (lots of recipes!!) and 100% Vegan is also a cool group (more about the philosophy than the food). I personally am working towards a more raw diet, so I don't use as many recipes but some are with more live foods too. Two cool sites are
