Life changing stuff

I’m making some changes. First of all, it’s time for a new haircolor. I’ve avoided it this long, but now I cannot ignore the gray. I’ve been yanking them out but if I keep it up I’m going to be bald. I mentioned the fact that I seem to have more gray than ever to my son, who said, “yeah, you have a ton of it. You’re old.”

I’m leaning toward a shade of reddish brown/auburn. I’m warning people in advance so there’s less shock, less omigoshwhatdidyoudotoyourhair?

Secondly, and this is purely an experiment, but my son and I have decided to go vegan for seven days. It was a spur of the moment grocery-store conversation that began,

Me: I wonder how it would be to go vegan for awhile.
Son: Let’s do it.
Me: Seriously?
Son: Yeah. For seven days.
Me: Lots of tofu, you know.
Son: I know.
Me: And beans.
Son: I can do it.

So starting Sunday, we’re meat and dairy free for seven days. I found a great resource to plan our Vegan Week that allows me to choose recipes, plan a menu and convert it all to a grocery list. I’ll be posting updates on how the experiment goes.
