“Mushrooms and Police Officers”

July 29th, 2008 by admin

I did something totally unbelievable, something that if you knew me 5 years ago and I had done it then you would be so amazed. I ate mushrooms on my own free will!

Now since turning Vegetarian/Vegan I’ve decided to try all those fruits and vegetables that I always hated as a kid again. Mushrooms I’ve had to ease myself into, I started by eating them on pizza, or chopped up really finely in a pasta sauce, but today I took the plunge.

Portobello Mushrooms I’ve heard described as an honorary meat.

I fried them lightly in margarine and them let them boil in a sort of peanut butter sauce that I made.

I then added them to a sandwich that also had pineapple on it and a tiny bit of leftover vegan cheese then fried that.

MY GOD it was the best toasted sammich I have ever eaten! A+++ I would definitely trade again!!

And just because all the Vegan blogs seem to do it here’s a photo of what it looked like before I devoured it!

Oh I promised you Police Officers didn’t I?

Well like most Teenage boys I’m pretty anti-establishment, probably more so than most actually!

I have a huge dislike for police officers, not the people, just the job they do and how they do it.

I was in my second week and about $2,000 (90% spent on alcohol) into a drunken working holiday in Australia. Staying in a hostel right next to the main Brisbane city police headquarters.

I for some reason decided to throw a bottle of the balcony, it “unintentionally” hit a cop car that turned out to be owned by some big-wig cop.

Anyway they caught it on camera and kicked me out without refunding the money I had paid in advance for the next weeks rent.

Jobless and without any money left I slept on the streets of Brisbane City for the next 3 days, but that’s a story  for another day xD
