It's really refreshing to see you're still going strong with this lifestyle. Thanks for everything!

You should definitely try adding some chopped up slightly overcooked pasta to your egg salad. It brilliantly replicates the look, texture and taste of those bigger bits of egg you get in the cruelty included version. Absolute game changer when we tried it. Keep up the sterling work 🌱

(Gave it a nice little crunch) Also i had no pickles left in my jar, so just added a tbs of the juice/marinade from the jar. Was great! Didnt even miss the pickle! And the bit of liquid made my egg salad a wee bit softer, which i found extra good. PS..Your cat closing her eyes as if to say My Daddy Loves Me, when u kissed her & told her she wont get wet in the garage...was EVERYTHING!

The life expectancy of an indoor cat is 10-15 years but the life expectancy of an outdoor cat is only 2-5 years. I know your cats aren't strictly outdoors, but there is an extra risk involved when they are let outdoors. As I said, I'm not judging, I'm just informing. Take care. :)

If you don't sit at home all day and cook - plant based diet is extremely challenging, at work usually people are eating once per day and then you have chance to cook dinner at home which gives you not enough nutrition cuz the vegan foods are rich in fiber and to be able to eat enough you need more meals during the day. It's so much easier to have meat, eggs, some vegg and some fruit if you go work full time cuz you cover the nutrition needs with fewer meals!
