I used to listen to Sean Hannity's radio show and I recall he used to make fun of a certain staff member that he called Flipper. This young woman, Flipper, was a vegetarian, so she would get excited about Thanksgiving for the "Tofu-rkey" they had every year. I just assumed that Flipper was this crazy, vegan, hippie young woman that probably didn't bathe properly, so I enjoyed her berating.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I just can't seem to get psyched about it. Last year, our family had multiple feasts, on multiple dates, at different locations around the state. Also, every Thanksgiving, including the one previous, I would count down the days to the turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing. Thanksgiving used to be my Christmas because it was an opportunity to pig out all day on my absolute favorite foods!
This year, it just doesn't even sound good. Maybe those 10,000 hours of healthy living habits have come a little earlier than I thought. I'm don't even plan on spotting myself extra calories tomorrow and I think I might be able to get in a work-out before we leave town.
1.) I was really in a bad place if gorging on starches and belittling vegetarians was what I took so much pleasure.
2.)Does anybody know where I could purchase a "Tofu-rkey"?!?!

Andy, I love your blog! After reading this one I have to tell you, tofurkeys are nasty! Don't ever try it, you will be bummed out. I'm a vegetarian and I won't even go near the stuff. However, if you are at a vegan restaurant, then I would say it is safe to say that their tofurkey would taste pretty good. Also, if you love corndogs, you should try the veg ones with Sweet Baby Rays bbq sauce. I swear it tastes better than how I remember real corndogs taste.
