Earthlings
Steph,
Last night I watched the documentary Earthlings that you had mentioned in a previous post on veganism. Yikes! I work in a Level 1 Trauma Hospital and have seen some pretty horrific things but I think the scenes from Earthlings disturbed me more than any thing I have seen in real life. Five months ago I decided to stop eating meat after I saw your site and am thankful I made the switch.
I’ve seen several documentaries over the years on the topic of meat production but Earthlings really seemed to jolt me into the reality of it all. Thank you for
including posts about veganism on your blog. Without seeing your site I don’t think I would have even considered it as most of the vegans/vegetarians I have known over the years have been malnourished. Now, from my own experience, I realize its not too difficult to have a
very nutritious diet without eating meat and I feel much better-I never thought I would be saying that.
Thanks again and happy climbing 🙂

Dear Erin,
Thank you very much for writing, and for your impressive comments. I have a good friend who quietly became vegan after watching Earthlings. I admire people who have the courage to make major lifestyle choices based on their desire to reduce harm. And I’m glad you have discovered good health and good feelings through veganism!

I also recently tried you recipe for biscuits and they were delicious! If I create any good recipes myself, I will pass them along 🙂 My other weakness these days has been baked apples topped with cinnamon, pecans, walnuts, and a drizzle of maple syrup. I never imagined veganism would be so satisfying!
