Inspired by Alicia Silverstone's "The Kind Diet" and Michael Pollan's "In Defense of Food," we want to experience the vegan lifestyle to improve our health, boycott animal suffering, and reduce our carbon footprint.

NYC bound!

I'm on my way to NYC for work, and despite the snow storm there, I'm very excited!  Why?  Well, I'll tell you:
1) I get to see my friends!
2) shopping (ie. Uniqlo, Darling, Madewell)
3) vegan cupcake tasting with Becky, Bettina, and Kathleen

After last year's NYC Cupcake-Off, the participants swore off sugar indefinitely (I think I lasted a week).  I pretty much wanted to die.  You should know that cupcake-offs are not all fun and games and pink frosting. It is serious business and not for the faint of heart or hypoglycemics. I'm particularly excited to check out Sweet Cheeks Bakery.


Day 21 Food Journal (3 weeks down!!):
-oatmeal; mushrooms, spinach, broccoli
-white bean soup, salad
-popcorn, dark chocolate, diet coke (it was a stressful day, OK?!)
-brown rice, broccoli, carrots, celery, mushrooms; "peanut butter babies" that Mom made me for my half bday!
-homemade trail mix
