"Certainly, if the entire world decided to become vegan tomorrow, a whole host of the world's problems would disappear overnight. Climate change would decrease by 25 percent, deforestation would cease, rainforests would be preserved, our water- and air-quality would increase, life-expectancy rates would increase, and our rates of cancer would plummet, so certainly, with that one action of becoming vegan you are quite effectively making the world a better place."

A Great Find
Today I wanted to share with you my favorite store-bought bread.
I do most of my grocery shopping at Sunflower Market and Trader Joe's. No matter where I shop, though, I need to be an expert label reader... and a loaf of bread is certainly no exception! A lot of bread contains milk, whey (milk product), and/or honey.
My favorite vegan bread actually comes from Safeway! It's labeled "Seven Grain Deli Style Sliced Bread", it only costs $2.69, and if you can find it fresh out of the bakery (?)... it's gonna be a GOOD day.

The Loving Hut
Did you know there is a GREAT new vegan restaurant in town? The Loving Hut, located at 35th Avenue and Union Hills (on 35th, SW corner of intersection). How nice to NOT have to drive to Scottsdale or Tempe for quality vegan fare!
Their entire menu is totally vegan, and they even offer great drinks and desserts. :-) Stop by when you can, they are open every day (11-3 for lunch, and 5-9 for dinner) and bring a friend!
Let's support businesses that share our priorities of health, environmentalism, and compassion.

Fish is not a Vegetable.
From my gal Jenny I....
Q: What do you call a vegetarian who eats fish?
A: A hypocrite.
You're so right, my friend. And I know this has a little sting to all you sushi-lovers... but don't worry! We veg*ns really DO appreciate you cutting red meat and poultry from your diet. That's a big step! Just please, do us a favor and stop calling yourself a vegetarian.

Easy Stir Fry...
Fresh Red Bell Pepper
Canned Pineapple
Frozen Broccoli
...and that's it! This is a favorite flavor combination of mine. Just throw in a frying pan with a small amount of oil and Bragg's (or soy sauce); broccoli first-so you don't overcook the pepper. Serve over brown rice and garnish with garlic gomashio.
Quick, Yummy, and Quick. And who doesn't like quick?
