Introduction

It's all about the animals. I want to help end their pain, suffering, confinement, and untimely death (at the hands of humans), and meet other like-minded humans following the same path.

What would you like to get out of vegan meetup?

Information and support on the vegan lifestyle, including advocacy for animal rights.

What was your weirdest non-veg craving? C'mon you can admit it...

Ice cream.

How long have you been vegan?

Vegetarian on and off for many years. This time I'm more determined than ever because I have learned it's less about me and much more about the animals. Becoming 100% vegan is my goal, from the products I use in my hair to the materials I wear on my feet. Head-to-toe vegan, inside and out, this is the life for me.

What made you decide to try the vegan lifestyle?

I love animals. 1. "Dominion: The Power of Men ... the Call to Mercy," Matthew Scully. 2. "Farm Sanctuary, Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and Food," Gene Bauer. 3. “Thanking the Monkey, Rethinking the Way We Treat Animals,” Karen Dawn.

Additional Information

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." - Mahatma Gandhi"

    "... and completely lovable of you, Jessica! While I haven't had an onslaught of ants this year, I do get the occasional reconnaisant ant, checking out my potential food sources for the communal nest...."
