And Now for an Episode of “To Eat and Not to Eat”
To Eat:
Check out this article over at The Huffington Post about chefs who are teaching food service groups how to make vegan meals.
Here’s a small excerpt:
Don’t miss out on the food porn at the bottom of the article either. Droolage. I wish I worked at one of those places and could see these meals pop up in my caf.
Not to Eat:
I officially adopted a sheep from Farm Sanctuary in western New York! Her name is Emmalie (which I am kind of embarrassed to admit I chose because of my love for Emily Deschanel) and she is one of a group of newborn sheep whose mother was rescued from a “free range” sheep farm when she was pregnant. You can read their story here.
Isn’t she sweet?
I’ll be getting an adoption package in the mail in a couple weeks so I’ll have more information about her then. Also, I can go visit her in June when I make a side trip to Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen while at my collge reunion in Elmira.



cute sheep. emmalie is a beautiful name
i didnt even know you can adopt cheeps as well. its a good idea.
thanks! she is cute. i can’t wait to visit her!
I got an email from Farm Sanctuary about the new sheep yesterday and had actually thought about sponsoring Emmalie, but since I currently have Twinkle, I decided to wait a bit. I really hope to get up to the New York branch in the late fall.
Eventually, I am going to also sponsor a pig or a sheep.
Awww you have a chicken! That’s great! I thought about doing a chicken or a pig for a long time because they would be more of a reminder of why I am a vegan but then I got that email and decided on a cute sheepy. A little less expensive than sponsoring a pig too. Although I love those oinkers. I’m sure once I go visit there I’ll be sponsoring one of everything. haha.
I hope you’re able to visit this fall. I went to college up there and it’s a nice area. Make sure you go hike the gorge in Watkins.
