Week in Review: Vegan Food and Political Action

This week I recapped my wonderful trip to New York City. After returning from my trip, I spent this week playing catch-up on my school work and home responsibilities. It’s crazy how I can be gone for only four days and still get so behind on so many things!

Monday October 17th: Recap of Day 1 in New York. Delicious vegan eats, lace hats, and good friends! Awesome chili and cornbread!

Tuesday October 18th: Day 2 in New York. All about the NYU Animal Studies: Changing the Subject? conference.

Wednesday October 19th: Recap of Days 3 and 4 in New York. More great eats and the story of Dick Hughes and Vietnam, and the effects of Agent Orange.

Thursday October 20th: The upsetting news of the ~50 animals shot and killed in Ohio this week. Something we should all take action on to change legislation around ‘exotic animals’.

Friday October 21st: Inspired by the chanterelles at the vegetable stand this week, I posted a recipe for mushroom and kale risotto. Yum!

This morning I am off to do the Walk for Farm Animals finally! I’ve been fundraising for a couple of months and I’ve raised $900 so far. The fundraising period ends next week (October 30), but the walk is today. Eric, Maizy and I will be walking in honor of all of the farmed animals who suffer so much for humans’ use of them and for those who have found sanctuary from suffering. Happy Sunday everyone!
