Meatless Monday in the Workplace

Meatless Monday in the Workplace: "People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals"

My Meatless Mondays in My Home have been so successful that I'm struggling to find the time to write about them!  I should have a few more posts up this week, now that VVOA's Gluten-Free Cook-Off has wrapped up.  In the meantime, check out PETA's article on Meatless Mondays in the Workplace.  Could you start something like this where you work?

Alicia Silverstone Not 'Clueless' About Vegan Health

This video is a bit older, but still fairly interesting. I know Alicia Silverstone and her book, The Kind Diet, have not been in the news as much lately, but she's still very relevant! In fact, among all of the information I picked up at VVOA's presentation on "Becoming A Vegan" on the 1st of March, the mention of Alicia Silverstone was almost a highlight for me. I ran into the girl who mentioned The Kind Diet again tonight. She's been vegan for nine days now, and feeling great! ("I've lost five pounds," she told me, with a surprised grin on her face.) Silverstone's book is the only vegan cookbook she has, but I think she got a lot of ideas from the potluck we were at!
