It’s not rocket science
It is, though, healthier, better for the environment (animal farming harms our environment far more than our cars!) and can also be cheap, fun, delicious and rewarding. Even just giving it a try once in a while counts! If you wanna try something out, just come to my house and I’ll cook it up.
Isa Chandra Moskowitz made it all possible for me with Vegan with a Vengeance.
Okay, thinking my dad went vegan and panicking over what to cook for him when he came to visit (he really only went vegetarian, but the end justifies the means, right?) made it all possible.
And Skinny Bitch pushed me over the edge. Of course the word ’skinny’ grabbed me, but the book is not just about bullshit ridiculous body image issues in this nation– it is about nutrition, and animal cruelty- if all you care about is what you look like this may not be the book for you. But if you care about your health, the environment, animal cruelty, your emotional wellbeing, and last and least looking hot (or at least hot-er), it’s a must.
But back to Isa. Her book helped me realize that you can eat really, really yummy vegan food– you don’t have to starve to death, and you don’t always have to work your ass off. Thank you, I love you.
Some of the recipes do require some work and odd ingredients, okay, but those are sooooo worth it. And many are cheap easy, and simply rock.
Love,
Kim
