I began my blog as a way to keep a diary of sorts. It is a way of sharing my journey into veganism and a way to bring together my interests of writing and photography, as well as cooking and baking.
My blog is about a little bit of this and a little bit of that, but mainly it is about everything vegan. I write mainly about recipes that I have created or recipes from cookbooks or magazines that I have tried. I review cookbooks and vegan products. I write about current events and any vegan information that I find online or in newspapers and magazines.
My blog is unique because it is not just a recipe blog. Yes, I usually talk daily about what I had or made for dinner. But I also talk about food in general. I am passionate about animal welfare, which is one of the main reasons why I became vegan. One day I came to the realization that if I love animals, why do I eat them? This was my main motivation for becoming vegan.
My husband is not a vegan. So a lot of times I write about his opinion of vegan food from an omnivore’s perspective. He tells me truthfully if he likes something or not. His opinion adds humor as well as insight from a different perspective.
I think people visit my blog for new recipes as well as resources for vegan information. But also to find out what cookbooks and recipes are good and which ones are not so good. I give very honest opinions about every recipe or product that I have tried.
I am passionate about writing the posts for my blog. It gives me great joy to share information and resources about veganism. I enjoy sharing my love for animals, food and health through my blog posts. My blog is a great resource for new vegans and for those whom are contemplating veganism.
