Another fun Kale T-Shirt

Today I found another fun T-Shirt.  This one is from a company in Vermont.  This one actually comes in several colors.  They even offer a free  "Eat More Kale"sticker on their website........

Forks Over Knives out on DVD

We just watched the new (DVD) movie Forks Over Knives.
It is a well  organized, clearly presented discussion of the health benefits of a plant based diet.
This is a DVD that we plan to share with family and friends who are confused about veganism.
The movie was even appealing to my elementary aged children.
Yay!  We will need to order a second copy to pass around!!

Goods vs. Ultimates

It is a balancing act to remain focused on the "main things" in life.


My nasty sin nature is sorely tempted to dive into an interest--
and dislodge the Lord from His place in my life.


I can easily become wrapped up in my passions
and quickly find myself worshipping an idol,  a functional-god.


I found this quote by Tim Keller this week,


"Sin isn’t only doing bad things, it is more fundamentally making good things into ultimate things. Sin is building your life and meaning on anything, even a very good thing, more than on God."


Veganism is a good thing in my life.
Lord help me resist making it an ultimate thing.

Homemade Vegan Dog Food

Last week I found a book called Dogs and Cats Go Vegetarian.
The book is not new, but the information is still solid.
In the book they recommend a supplement called "Vegedog" to use in making homemade dog food.
Today I found the supplement sold online (Yay!) at vegepet.com.
Has anyone else ever tried this supplement or the recipes that are online at vegepet?

Vegan Dog Food??

In August, we are going to be getting a new puppy!  A friend has a litter of pups & we have selected a little female puppy.  My kids have already agreed to the name...  Gracie.

BUT

I need ideas of how to feed this dog!  Does anyone know of any vegetarian or vegan dog foods or dog food recipes?

Dinner Guests

Ever notice... that once people discover that you're vegan,
you are not invited over for dinner anymore?

I still love to have people over to my house,
and I usually  make something vegetarian and familiar.  Spaghetti, hearty veggie soup, etc.

But I have noticed that we do not have many people invite us over lately.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

First Corinthians sermon

Heard my favorite ever sermon that related to veganism.  Pastor states his church's position on veganism and vegetarianism.   (The sermon is on a section of First Corinthians 8.)
