A funny thing happened over Memorial Day weekend (I know...I've neglected this blog).
We were with a group of friends eating out at an unmentioned popular steakhouse. I ordered a bloomin' onion & a wedge salad. The waiter brought me a wedge salad & a slab of roast. I told him I didn't order the roast....He said, "Well, don't worry about it...I won't charge you for the steak!" I looked at him & said, "But I don't want it at all...I'm a vegetarian." He apologized & immediately took it back.
My friends thought I was crazy...b/c one of them would have gladly taken the bullet for me & gobbled it down.
However, honesty is always the best policy. The manager came out with my correct order, apologized again, and said the bill was on her that night. So, I enjoyed my lovely meal...with smiles all around.

Advice for the Pregnant Veggie
So, I get a lot of unsolicited advice from people all the time about being/handling pregnancy and children....now, that I'm expecting.... especially on issues of my being a veggie.
One lady asked, "How are you going to get enough protein for the baby without eating meat?" I told her the same way I get it now.....through food!! LOL
Even my husband has been telling me that he was going to mince some meat up & put it in the baby's bottle when it gets here. I told him that he could change those diapers!!LOL
Finally one more humorous note:
One guy at church said, "You need to eat meat...or your baby will be born naked!"
