If you do sprout bunny ears, perhaps you can be the centerfold in KIWI. It’ll bring a whole new meaning to “Moms Gone Wild”. Think cute fuzzy bunnies, people, not naughty bunnies.

Tho I’ve heard there are bunny rescue societies much like the ASPCA – they might make a cute addition.

Cows everywhere are bowing down to you and your efforts. Guess a celebratory steak after the 1st month is out of the question?

Looking forward to seeing your progress. Let me know if you sprout bunny ears or wiskers.

George’s 3-CD box set was a key survival mechanism for my wife’s post-natal navigations through Singapore, and celiac disease and other challenges prompted her to also explore near-vegan experiences… For my part, I don’t think my body would response well at all to meat after 15 years without.

Look forward to learning more and laughing more (interesting how those two go together)!

You know, as a carnally-minded mommy I have long-suspected that Vegans are devoid of humor, but then just look at Tempeh, and now your blog, complete with its seasonally appropriate vision of The Vegan Mary, and I practically need a cloth diaper of my own.

You’re slaying and filleting me. More, more!
I respect what you’re doing here, Edamommy—but you can’t tofuul me: it can’t be easy.

An adapted Vegan Easter ballad for you:
“Little Bunny ToFu-Fu, hopping through the forest, picking up the field mice and…not eating them.”

PS: I am right there with you in the Shrute Chute.

You crack me up Edamommy! Can’t even fathom going vegan myself, as my diet consists of my kiddies’ leftovers which are usually chicken nuggets and turkey dogs…I do however, want to read more of your adventures! Keep blogging!

Naughty link! So, if you google “Magic of Skiing” or “Thomas Crum” you’ll find the ski school we go to in Aspen.

When I was pregnant, my triggers were orange juice and tomato sauce.

Thanks for posting!

I will NEVER listen to that song the same way again!! “Set meat free why don’t you babe!” Probably one of the funniest things I’ve read in a long time! Vegan, huh? I have to admit that the idea is somewhat appealing. Ever since I’ve been pregnant the thought of meat or animal products makes me rather sick! Maybe it’s just a ‘tempeh-rary’ thing… (again, hilarious!), but I like the way you are thinking! Can I still be a vegan if I don’t want to give up my favorite leather boots?
Oh, and I have no idea what zen skiing is and I can’t get the link to work!? It’s driving me nuts!

Totally forgot – I love you, too, Annelies. Just so no one feels left out, I love all of you (well, perhaps with the exception of that guy who was in the right turning lane and went straight today – what the deuce (WTD?)).

And, I got 3 emails asking WTD is zen skiing. Here’s the link – http://www.aikiworks.com/skiing.html. They do a much better job at describing it than I could. I now ski thanks to Tom, Cathy, Kirsten and the whole Magic of Skiing gang.

I’m humming a new theme song. You know George Michael’s “Too Funky” from his Ladies and Gentlemen CD? I changed it to “Hey, you’re just Tofurkey for me…” That CD got me through two years in the Peace Corps, and I feel it is an honor to include it in the blog. By the way, shouldn’t this KiwiLOG be a Klog? Edamommy’s Vegan Klog. Nice.

I found a giant vegan loophole and I will share it with you. I am a huge fan of recycled clothing (consignment and thrift stores). But, Annelies, I would love to hear about the clogs (what company? do they come in purple?) I feel like I landed on a whole new planet of wondrous things. So fun.

And, Marianne, I don’t know you, but I love you. Thanks for the sweet comments. I hope someone from The Office reads this and I can be one of their writers because I have a secret, bizarre fascination with Dwight Schrute. Maybe it’s his beet farm. I even gave out Schrute bucks in the Tech Writing course I was teaching at a local college.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone. I will be eating Tof-ham and Tofeaster eggs, but it’s only tempeh-rary.

Can you write a book or a TV show? This is the funniest thing I’ve read in WEEKS!
