I'm a twenty-something living on the East Coast. I became vegetarian three years ago at a clambake with a not-so-subtle encounter with a lobster. I was one of those "But I could never give up cheese!" lacto-vegatarians for about a year until I did some reading (and watched the documentary
Earthlings) that opened my eyes to the cycle of violence and cruelty that connects all animal products. Veganism quickly followed, as did my love for cooking and inventing new recipes. When I'm not blogging (which is most of the time), I'm working at a publishing company as an Associate Acquisitions Editor for photography and theatre books.
