Well I messed this up ROYALLY! So we have had a very busy week and with the weather being what it has been this entire week, we decided to just head out and grab ourselves a ready meal.

Roughly a third of all of the Earth's non-ice land is used to raise the 70 billion livestock animals needed to meet … Continue reading Veganism and fast fashion
Dating a non-vegan
One of the most common questions I get when I mention that I live with my boyfriend and that I am vegan, is whether or not he is vegan too. When I say no, they immediately respond with 'then why are you with him?'. And to this day I never know how to respond to … Continue reading Dating a non-vegan
