I find it so cool that you've been vegan for 24 years, as a younger vegan (7 years) I thank you for suffering through groceries with one brand of soy milk and maybe some tofu (if you're lucky) so that we can live in this world were I have access to vegan fudgesicles at the local grocery store.
I'm curious though, because veganism has definitely been a point of contention in my past few relationships; how do you and your wife manage meals? Do you do separate meals, or is it more of a "she's vegan at home" type situation?
For sure being vegan has gotten a lot easier since I started. At home, I'm very lucky that she does most of the cooking. Sometimes she eats what she makes for me, other times she makes herself something separate. I wash the dishes to my own standards, so I don't worry about "contamination" except for a few things: cutting board, frying pan.
Being (or being with) a vegan can be super inconvenient at times. After all these years (married for 21), we are super well-adjusted to it.
