So now I am pretty much only eating fish. I haven't really read much of Eating Animals since the first week of checking it out from the library (I've even had to renew my check-out or turn it in by today) but I just have naturally phased things out. I still have some chicken and ground beef in the freezer that I will need to use, but I just haven't been relying on those meats for meals much. Instead I have the fish or will do a salad or a loaded boiled potato for dinner. Then I have the avocado (now sans-turkey) sandwiches for at work with a ton of fruit, fresh and dried, and nuts for snacks.
I ate my first passion fruit today. I assumed it would be like most fruits wherein you cut it open and eat the flesh of the fruit, but with the passion fruit it is a bit different. Inside it is just a bunch of seeds and goop and you spoon that stuff out and chow down. Really sweet and tasty and it makes complete sense that it is used in so many drinks because it naturally tastes very sugary, like nectar. The seeds are kind of odd to chew, but I couldn't find a good way to drink the goop juice around them so down they went with the rest.
I watch so much television today...it was crazy. I started with Eureka and Warehouse 13 then moved on to The past two episodes of Torchwood which finished off its season. Then it was the season premier of Vampire Diaries followed by the pilot of Secret Circle. Then Weeds, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and Archer. I think that was it...oh! and Ringer. I watched the pilot for Ringer as well! And it is just the beginning. All this month and into the next my shows will be coming back and with it my faithfulness to television viewing domination. Wherever there is a show of quality to watch, I will be there. Wherever there is a guilty pleasure factor without being too traumatizing (Jersey Shore is too much for me), I will be there. And wherever there are kick ass characters who are multifaceted and flawed and showing a full arc of growth, I will be there, watching and enjoying and annoying everyone around me to get on it!
