Although my fiancé and I are always down to try new foods, we’re wary when it comes to vegan cheese. We have our faves and we generally stick to them, partially because we don’t want to splurge on a brand or cheese variety that we might not like (which would be a waste of money…

We’re two days into Veganuary 2017 and I’ve received messages from even more friends who are taking the plant-based diet plunge! HELL YES! I’m so excited that so many people are interested in veganism and I can’t wait to see how many of you stick with it once Justin Timberlake’s birthday has passed! I suspect it…

I’m coming up on my two-year veganversary, which is really exciting! Going plant-based has improved my life in a myriad of ways. I save a ton of money on groceries since I don’t buy animal products or byproducts, and even though the vegan takeout options in Providence are numerous, I don’t eat out nearly as often as…

The last animal product my fiance and I gave up when we decided to go vegan was cheese. We’d been using non-dairy milk and vegan butter for months, but we stubbornly clung to cheese because 1) we loved it and 2) I wasn’t a great cook, but I knew that if I slapped cheese on…

The change has been great for both of us and we both agree that we’re generally healthier, happier, and more energetic without animal products bogging down our bodies. We’ve found substitutes for a lot of the food we used to enjoy (even garbage junk food…

At the beginning of the month, after responding favorably to an email asking whether I’d like an advanced copy of Colin Beavan’s new book, I received a paperback of How to Be Alive: A Guide to the Kind of Happiness That Helps the World. Prior to receiving the aforementioned email, I had never heard of Beavan…

Prior to going vegan, my experience with vegan cheese was basically limited to Daiya and Teese. Those were the two brands served and sold at a vegan café I worked at in New Hampshire and to my knowledge, they were the figurative cream of the crop. I didn’t really do a lot of research or…

The weather is changing! Fall has arrived! You know what that means: cold season! Yes, alongside all the falling leaves and decorative gourds comes the awful feeling of a sore throat and a simultaneously runny and stuffy nose. I haven’t caught the sniffles yet but my partner has, and this year I’ve finally managed to…
