More About Me

Reasons why I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan:
first for health reasons (pus does NOT do a body good), next for the environment and ethical reasons.

I joined HappyCow Members Community because:
to meet more veg minded folk, build my vegan circle with other knowledgable people. it seems difficult to meet veg heads, even in the pacific northwest.

Here are some places I've been that I liked... and places that I would like to visit one day:
i love astoria, oregon, i just wish it was more veg friendly. as far as finding veg friendly culture, cities tend to be where it's at. small towns, which i love, seem to have the opposite culture of what i crave even if they have a quaint and cozy atmosphere. anyone know of a 'progressive' small town?

Some of my favorite veg*n foods include:
chocolate/peanutbutter tofu pie. graham cracker crust. chopped choc covered pretzels on top. ho boy!

Here are some books, movies, magazines, and my favorites that I would recommend to other HappyCow members:
china study, t colin campbell was very informative. mad cowboy and no more bull by howard lyman were educational but packed with humor.
