More About Me

Reasons why I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan:

I have been a vegetarian for nearly three years now. I fully support animal rights and I also strive to be as healthy as I possibly can. Through my volunteer work at my local Humane Society, I have developed the philosophy that since I would never eat my dog or cat, why would I ever eat a cow, pig, or chicken? I feel that society should have advanced beyond the "caveman mentality" by now, and therefore, eating meat has regressed into an outdated institution.

I joined HappyCow Members Community because:

I would like to meet more people who are conscientious about what they consume. Also, I believe that compassion is sexy ;)

Here are some places I've been that I liked... and places that I would like to visit one day:

I have been to quite a few places in the U.S. - Las Vegas (LOTS of fun!), Seattle, Florida, Arizona, and NYC to name a few. I've also been to Niagara Falls. I would love to see other countries, such as Spain and France. My dream is to someday visit Australia.

Some of my favorite veg*n foods include:

I love tofu, spinach lasagna, eggplant, pasta, all kinds of things. I am always open to new dishes!

Here are some books, movies, magazines, and my favorites that I would recommend to other HappyCow members:

I am a member of PETA, so I would recommend the documentary, "I Am An Animal."
