I cheated. (just a little bit) I went to a surprise birthday party tonight and at the snack table, there were these bite sized gobou beef rolls. I popped one in my mouth and an explosion of flavor coursed through my tongue. It was a bite of heaven. I haven't had a piece of beef in two weeks and it was glorious! Although I cheated tonight, that single bite gave me so much joy. Back to only veggies tomorrow.
