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.

How do vegans survive Easter?

Have you heard of the Vegan Easter Bunny?  No?  Me either.  But if he did exist, you might find these candies in his basket. I'll just dive into the Lindt dark chocolate bunny my mommy sent me and the vegan dark chocolate truffles I made (4 ingredients: vegan cream cheese, dark chocolate, powered sugar, vanilla).

Here Alicia provides other vegan Easter ideas.

I spent 5 hours in food preparation today, and I enjoyed it.  Really, suited up with my apron and a glass of wine in hand, I'm good to go.  Also, in preparation for tomorrow's Easter feaster, Angela and I went hiking for 5 miles in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

Day 57 Food Journal:

-Kashi cereal with flax, banana, unsweetened almond milk (only 40 cal per cup!)
-trail mix
-homemade garlic hummus with carrots and crackers
-red wine, homemade dark chocolate truffle
-leftover veggie soup with curry sticks
