How did it go? My family was quite nice to me. We cooked a vegan meal together and they said it was even good lol.

My chilldren and I did, but the table was far from vegetarian! We had an entirely omnivorous family joined together which meant a turkey and ground beef in their stuffing! But they did try our vegan stuffing, sweet potatoes, banana bread, green beans, corn, gravy, carrots, and this cranberry salsa over vegan cream cheese appetizer!!! For my in-laws, I don't think they are anywhere close to giving up the turkey, but they did enjoy our vegan dishes and I think are less close minded about what we eat.

Honestly, I don't think we should be so harsh about labels and getting the lingo right. Traditionally, a vegan is someone who tries to keep all animal products of any kind out of their daily lives, while a vegetarian does use some animal products dietary or otherwise. Lots of labels are just artificial ways to try to pigeon hole someone. I actually don't like the term "vegetarian" because it makes so many people think that vegetarians only eat vegetables and then they don't understand what a rich and full diet actually available to vegetarians. Better than hearing a list of labels like "I am...." and thinking you know them, is getting to know the person in all their complexity. Best advice? If someone calls themselves a lacto-ovo vegan, just ask them about it.

My husband and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal together. It wasn't exactly Thanksgivingesque though, since we didn't have the typical turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. However, I marinated Morningstar chicken and steak strips for the main dish. Plus I steamed some broccoli, baked a couple baked potatoes and crescent rolls. And I made a delicious choclate peanut butter pie. It was a great feast!

Well, *my* Thanksgiving dinner was vegan, of course. The others had turkey but, whether they were aware or not, everything else on the table was vegan, right down to dessert.

I made a vegan Moussaka and Apple pie. It was just me and my husband, but it was lovely :)
Christmas will be different as we're spending it with my Mom, but I'm going to infiltrate the kitchen and make sure there are enough veggie options for everyone!

My boyfriend and I went to the celebration sponsored by the local vegetarian society, so everything was vegan.

I kind of did as a matter of fact. Ate a jar of peanut butter with celery.
