First Things First...

~ Eating is not merely a material pleasure. Eating well gives a spectacular joy to life and contributes immensely to goodwill and happy companionship.
It is of great importance to the morale. ~
-Elsa Schiaparelli


First Things First.  So what's a vegan? What's a carnivore?

Merriam-Webster defines a vegan as: a strict vegetarian who consumes no animal food or dairy products.  A carnivore is defined as any typically flesh-eating mammals.

Two polar extremes, and yet we fell in love.  A bizarre relationship built upon similar personalities and character, and not about commonality of that on our plate.  As we "became one" we realized our meal planning did not.  It has taken us over a year to establish similar meals, where the base can be shared, with our own proteins added in.  It is our hope to share some ideas, inspiration, advice, and funny anecdotes with those living divided under the same roof... hopefully resolving the often painful age old question: What's For Dinner?

  1. Great Idea for a blog. I'm not a vegan but I don't eat red meat, whereas my fiance is a carnivore so we probably face similar issues.
