Chooseveg.com

I just found this awesome website called "chooseveg.com" It is a website completely devoted to vegetarians & vegans with not only yummy recipes, but tips and information. I love it! I have to share this bit of info I found on their website, just to put things into perspective.....

"Becoming vegetarian is one of the most important and effective actions you can take to ease the strain on our Earth’s limited resources, protect the planet from pollution, prevent global warming, and save countless species from extinction.

According to Dr. David Brubaker, PhD, at Johns Hopkins University’s Center for a Livable Future, “The way that we breed animals for food is a threat to the planet. It pollutes our environment while consuming huge amounts of water, grain, petroleum, pesticides and drugs. The results are disastrous.”

As the Sierra Club put it in their 2002 report on animal factories, “environmental violations by the meat industry add up to a rap sheet longer than War and Peace.""


Pretty crazy! This is all I have to share today, I'm off to enjoy the beautiful winter weather and take Lorelai on a bike ride to Whole Foods to get my ingredients for these new recipes.

Until Next time......
