I apologize for the delay in getting this monthly post out. November seemed to fly by like lightening! In all actuality, there’s not a whole lot to share for October since I was out of town the majority of the month. Meanwhile, while I was gone, I read and saw your Instagram photos of many […]

When I first went vegan eight years ago I didn’t know anyone vegan or even vegetarian. I initially went vegan to improve my health after reading Alicia Silverstone’s book, The Kind Diet, which I highly recommend.

The month of September proved to be quite a good vegan foodie find month. It happened haphazardly, but nonetheless it was quite easy. I will probably keep saying this till the day I die, but if I hear one more person tell me that Dallas isn’t vegan friendly. I tell ya what, I’d rather be […]

Therefore, my list of the best things I ate out in July includes a few more entries this month. Let’s jump straight in. It’s no secret […]
