But having a bbq’d chicken is just strange now. We’ll see how long this lasts, but we’re both really enjoying the vegetarian thing. Oh yeah, I’m mixing them because we did have some feta cheese on a homemade greek pizza (using dough from the fridged section at Trader Joe’s. And she has milk milk. I personally have soy milk and soy yoghurts and all that. It’s fun so far, and soooooo yummy. And I’m losing the weight. Soon I won’t be a round (hopefully). But I’ll talk about Billy Blanks in a future posting.

Update: Renat is married, folks. And his last name is with a u.
