My name's Stacey and I became a vegetarian January 10th, 2007. Between late 2010 and early 2011, I tried switching slowly into a vegan diet and haven't looked back! I love cooking (even though I'm horrible at it!) and trying lots of new things. I've changed a lot over the years as I've gone from a young girl to a fully grown woman, but the one thing that's always been engrained in my core is my love for animals. With that being said, I couldn't possibly call myself an animal lover, while eating them or using them for their products. That, along with the health benefits I've experienced are my main driving forces.
