So, wondering why your bottled water costs 1900 times more than tap? Maybe it's time to switch! Apparently tap water can be the best you could get with the ultimate transparency when it comes to its water sources, purification methods, and contaminants.

Mexican Chocolate Snickerdoodles, anyone? If you like Mexican Hot Chocolate that bursts with cinnamon flavor and cayenne pepper kick, you will fall in love with this recipe. It is from Isa's book called Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar. Love love love amazing yet simple recipes that don't call for special ingredients. In fact, I had most of the ingredients ready at my house, which enabled me to bake it almost immediately. :) 

This fun video shows Ellen and Portia Turkey coming home from the slaughterhouse to safety in the lady's home, getting a bath and blow-dry, and generally enjoying life. It also includes a segment of undercover footage from MercyforAnimals.org, lest we forget what happens to the other 60 million.

Hosting a Turkey-free Thanksgiving yet missing the centerpiece? Here are a few ideas for a Vegetarian Turkey Day!

• Vegetarian Turkey from Vege USA:
  
  • Believe it or not, it is shaped like a turkey...!
    
  • Large size
    
  • It comes with stuffing & gravy- however, my longtime-vegan friend Christina recommends making your own vegetarian stuffing & gravy.
  • Recommendations:
    
    • Slice the top open several times and put vegetarian broth in it- this keeps it moist
      
    • Fill the bottom of the roasting dish with root veggies & broth & cover it, so it kind of steams & bakes
  • Where to Buy: Whole Foods
    
• Tofurkey Vegetarian Feast:
  • Not shaped like a Turkey
    
  • Smaller
  • Recommendations: Baste & glaze it- following directions! Also note the recommendations f
    
  • Where to Buy: Sold anywhere that usually sells Tofurkey products should have the holiday "turkey" product during holidays, like Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Jimbo's, etc.
  • Store Locator
• Gardein Savory Stuffed Turkey
  • Not shaped like a Turkey
  • Smaller
  • Where to Buy: Select natural food stores and Whole Foods
    
• If you don't want feel like cooking and live in San Diego, Jimbo's also sell pre-made Vegan Thanksgiving meal for 2
• Some stuffing recipes from PETA

Happy Thanksgiving! :)

Can you believe it? Actor who played Hurley, from popular ABC show 'Lost' has gone vegetarian! For four entire months now! No more Mr. Clucks Fried Chicken for him!

"It's about the animals," Garcia said on AOL. He also confirmed that health benefits of going vegetarian is great also.

“The notion that you need animal food as protein is one of the great conspiracies of bullshit by the government. Did we not all grow up saying we had to have four glasses of whole milk a day for healthy bones? It’s ridiculous. It’s liquid cholesterol.”

Sure, Chelsea Clinton had a vegan-friendly wedding and reported to spent millions of dollars, but you can have a gorgeous wedding that doesn't have to cost as nearly as much! (According to news, she did have some organic grass-fed beef served as an option.) However, I myself had an all-vegan wedding. Yes! Me! A "classy" and "perfect" and "beautiful" wedding, at that, according to our own guests! And my guests, including some of the most die-hard carnivores, absolutely loved our food. Yes, you can have a vegan wedding that wows your family and friends! And it's really not hard if you plan ahead. Alas, here are 9 steps to have a classy 100% vegan wedding:...

These pancakes turned out really well! Easy and simple to prepare, this is my favorite recipe out of the book Vegan Brunch so far. I have made roasted potatoes, roasted rosemary potatoes, and roasted butternut squash- they all turned out delicious and perfect for my brunch items, along with our own creation: garlicy soy tofurkey sausages and mushroom with basil. I served these for my own vegan brunch to my friends and family and they really liked them! Yay!
