Beef! It's what's for dinner!

Those of you who know me well, know that I do NOT eat red meat.  I can barely eat chicken (unless it is cooked like jerky), but I know I need the protein so I force myself to eat it.  If I could, I would totally be a vegetarian pre-pregnancy.  Well, the other day we went to the Compton's for dinner and every one was eating steak while I had my jerky chicken.  For some reason the steak looked delicious....so I tried ONE bite of Mark's and it was sooo good! WEIRD beyond weird!  So I had a little more, everyone was shocked-even me!  So the next night for dinner at our house we had flank steak too, and I ate it! Again it was so tasty! I only felt bad for the cow once, but then I thought if I don't eat it, then this cow died for no reason, so I carried on.  After I ate it, I felt like I had an epiphany:  I was like a normal person eating meat! It was the first time in YEARS that I have not dissected and inspected every bite of meat.  Moooove over meat eaters, I am now on your team and it feels kind of good.
