I think about diet and nutrition a lot. I've called myself a vegetarian for years, but I still eat a lot of seafood. Lately I've been watching documentaries about where food comes from and that's led me to loosely follow a vegan diet which means LOTS of fruit, veggies, rice, and significantly limiting meat, dairy, etc. So far, I've enjoyed trying new dishes and I've been feeling really good. I think it's so ironic that the season of gratitude and Thanksgiving tends to go hand in hand with gorging on food. This year Bret and I cooked Thanksgiving on our own and we made Tofurkey (for me), turkey, quiona and sweet potato stuffing, green beans, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, brussel sprouts, cranberry sauce, and cornbread. I tried to focus on enjoying each bite and at the end of the meal, I felt comfortably full instead of stuffed. ...Then I ate pie and cupcakes. It's a learning process :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155598950866521614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288106645175853382.post-87390191948193741632013-11-13T01:55:45.584-08:002013-11-13T01:55:45.584-08:00Good advice!!Good advice!!Mommalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540182209953241094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288106645175853382.post-12581586702053170212013-10-11T06:22:36.711-07:002013-10-11T06:22:36.711-07:00It's just the beginning......Muahahahahahahaha...It's just the beginning......Muahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Mommalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540182209953241094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288106645175853382.post-11434461187657326432013-10-09T08:12:34.746-07:002013-10-09T08:12:34.746-07:00haha while I"ve been stuck in my dress and po...haha while I"ve been stuck in my dress and popped a button here and broke a zipper there, I don't think I've ever had to rip off my unders in the process! hahahah Chelseahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799494841663201861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288106645175853382.post-20115570384651267772013-10-01T20:54:13.519-07:002013-10-01T20:54:13.519-07:00It probably wasn't too funny at the time, but ...It probably wasn't too funny at the time, but you are so great at telling stories... hilarious!

That's the only thing missing in this blog :o) You did amazing Erica and there will be a next time I'm sure....luckily God gave women the ability to go thru this experience by somehow making us forget just how intense birthing gets near the end of the actual delivery.
