Things I have eaten recently, and the people that shared them.

I have been on a MAJOR blogging hiatus. It has been a very busy fall around the hippy hostel, but I am back. While I may not have been blogging, I definitely was still eating lots of yummy food, so here are some of the highlights.

The marriage debate and vegan homophobia

Much has been made of weddings in the news lately (just incase you have been hiding under a rock and don’t know!). Yes that is right, the country is up in arms regarding the latest afront to traditional weddings, the leftist takeover of traditional American values, and the media has been unrelenting in their coverage! The New York Times has been blazing the trail in their coverage as the news has unfolded. Yes, I am talking of course, about vegan weddings. Apparently lesbos have some feelings about veganism. Apparently, so does the rest of the world. But just like your purported gayness, their feelings might not jive with your purported veganism. Surprise, surprise.

Win “The Get Healthy, Go Vegan Cookbook”

I love PETA contests. They are the best IMHO, so get your game faces on ladies and enter this contest to win what looks like a great new cookbook by Dr. Neal Bernard.

From the back:

“In Dr. Neal Barnard’s Get Healthy, Go Vegan Cookbook, the country’s leading diabetes team weighs in on America’s hottest dietary trend. The cookbook is based on a landmark two-year study conducted by Dr. Barnard, which showed that a vegan diet more effectively controls type 2 diabetes. In fact, it‘s also beneficial for weight loss, the reversal of heart disease, and the improvement of many other conditions. Dr. Barnard and nutritionist Robyn Webb now offer easy, delicious meals to improve your health.

Rescue an Animal, Feel Good.

Do you have room for a new furry friend? Do you have a car? Are you in Montreal? Have time? Money? Want to get involved with a great organization? If you can adopt, foster, volunteer, or drive, I have a job for you.

Paws for Life Rescue Montreal rescues predominantly pups from pounds and puppy mills and attempts to find them new happy forever homes, or at least, foster parents. They are always looking for donations for vet fees for the furry mutts, and for volunteers to drive, deliver, or pick up animals from the pound and take them where they need to go.

Join their facebook group to get updates on new pups or kitties, or to get news on who/what they need for volunteers. This is a great way to get involved and do some good. Even if you don’t have room to adopt, you might be able to help find people who can.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, LET’S START A REVOLUTION AND CHANGE THE WORLD!!!!!!!
