I first went vegetarian in 1989, vegan shortly after that. Still maintained today! I've been blessed to watch the explosion of vegan foods, over the years. I'm very active in my spiritual community, love being anywhere out in nature, especially forests and rivers and mountains, and I deeply love music, whether playing or listening. I organically garden and cook much of what I eat, rather than going out. I'll also answer almost any question, however, be prepared to get some back....
