you guys I started a new blog chronicling my vegan competition with my roommate Lenny!!! tell your friends, watch me WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay, so this vegan thing. Whats it about? Why would I, someone who has never even tried or cared to be a vegetarian (could maybe even be classified as “rude” or “unaccepting” towards vegans) , subject themselves to such torture? First - a little background.
My name is Andrea Donadio and I am a 25 year old photographer living in Chicago with my roommate and fellow photographer Lenny Gilmore. We’re both pretty busy hustlin’ for that green (pun intended!), and being roommates we also see what the other eats… and maybe skim off of whatever is left in the fridge (to be fair I don’t think Lenny is guilty of this). I’m not going to lie, neither of us have been doing very good jobs at getting in all the food groups and when you’re working 50 + hours a week every meal feels like an emergency. So we decided we would go vegan for a week (after Thanksgiving) as a little experiment to hopefully establish better eating habits and see what all the hub bub was about. We thought it would be fun! Easy Peasy! We were fucking stupid wrong.
To deal with the hunger and the subsequent anger trash talk happened. Words were said. The stakes were raised. And what once started off as a cute bet between pals has now morphed into an epic battle of will between mortal enemies. Who will last longest? Who can force the other to break vegan edge first? And most importantly - Who can humiliate the other the most on this dirty starving path to VICTORY. This blog is meant to be our account of the experience and an outlet for our cravings. There are no rules. There is no prize other than the obvious EPIC GLORY of KNOWING THAT YOU ARE A WINNER AND THAT LENNY IS A LOSER.
ITS ON SHIT HEAD.
