Vegan Health, Beauty and Fashion Blog

Hey, good people! Last night's dinner at Mr. Chan's was so great. I ate so much good vegan food that I was stuffed for hours afterward! What a good night and a great way to support a local restaurant that is vegan-friendly!

So who has photos? I was so busy eating that I didn't take any pictures =)

I also wanted to let you know that my blog, "Vegan Health, Beauty and Fashion" is now available for subscription on Amazon.com. You don't have to have a Kindle to subscribe. You can download the free Kindle app for your smart phone or computer and still enjoy the blog. Here is the link so you can check it out:

"Vegan Health, Beauty and Fashion" Blog

I plan to update the blog about 5 times per week in order to stay up to date on trends, news, and other great info.

That's it until next time!

Wait, you mean *that* is vegan?

Sunday night, after the meeting, a few of the OTCA organizers went on a mini field trip to Safeway. The mission: Map out the store for next week's shopping trip. The reward: +1 EXP for finding things I forgot were vegan.

The evening's top treasure:











Safeway's store brand Fudge Stripes! They're not organic, they're not home made, and they sure aren't healthy. But they *are* free of eggs, milk, honey, and lots of the other animal ingredients in many store-bought desserts! They're also pretty tasty.

Grocery Store Treasure Hunt runners up included chocolate sorbet that tastes just like old-school Fudgesicles (dip a Fudge Stripe in it for bonus points!), Tresemme's large line of non-animal-tested products, St. Ives apricot face scrub that has been reformulated (yay!) to remove the lanolin, and chocolate-covered graham crackers. (If you've noticed a theme, yes I love chocolate, and yes, I love scrubby and shampoo-y things. And also parentheses.)

What surprisingly vegan-friendly items have you found on your own treasure hunt?
