I feel sometimes like the “my advocacy is working” stars align. I will tell you my little story and let you be the judge. My husband, who grew up on a farm, has been, like most of us, a consumer of nonhuman animals for most of his life. Like others mothers of this generation, his mother raised her children on the idea that animals as food is a natural and normal and healthy way for humans to live. She” raised” …
The last thing I do at night before I hit the proverbial hay is plug in my energy depleted iPad. One of the first things I do in the morning after swinging my legs out of bed is unplug my re energized iPad. I will admit, it usually is within reach wherever I am in the house during the day.

There have been a lot of wonderful firsts in my life since I sat down last New Year’s Eve to a create a blog that has since morphed into this website about veganism.

One of my goals as a vegan wishing to do the most good in the shortest amount of time, was, and still is, to meet other vegans, to listen to their views, to share mine and to come together with a new and improved and productive vision.
