Hello! What is new with you? Things have been pretty busy right now at school and with Little I. I am still trying to get the hang of working full time and being a full time mom. Little I will be 2 in December, you would have thought I would have figured it out by now right?!
Anyways, one new thing with me is that I have been a vegan for a month officially! I am so excited about being a vegan that I wanted to share it with you! It has changed my life for the better and I feel so much healthier for eating "clean." I know this is mainly an art blog but this blog is also a blog about my life. Turning vegan is a huge part of my life now so I thought I would share with you my experience. I am a newbie vegan (person who eats NO animal products including dairy and eggs) and I have even given up processed foods (huge deal for me!) I literally went from being a microwave dinner freak (think lean cuisines for every meal) to actually cooking from scratch all of my meals!
One of the main reasons I wanted to try the vegan lifestyle was that I read some articles about the China Study and also my best friend has been a vegan for many years and she always seems to have this amazing healthy glow to her! I am a huge animal fan and have always loved veggies and fruits so I thought "Why not?" Luckily there is a WEALTH of information out there for new vegans like myself that helped ease me into eating animal-product free!
So be prepared in future posts to see some fun vegan recipes as I attempt to create easy, quick vegan meals!

| Vegetables rule my life now! |

| Great fall veggies from the farmer's market! |

| Tofu French fries...yep...these are actually awesome! |
 |
| Quinoa, spinach, mushrooms and zucchini |

| Sweet potato and white bean patties with mushrooms and avocado. That is actually salt on top of my sweet potatoes! |
Wow! Vegan... I was vegan in my early 20's and I still love tofu and tempeh.
ReplyDeleteI never thought I would become vegan but it has been a great change so far!
