The Holy Church of Veganism →
This article tells about a proposed Bill of Equality (in the UK) that will give vegans the same legal protection as religious groups. At first the idea struck me as quite far-fetched, but then I thought, why not? In many ways the values behind veganism (and animal rights) resemble religious tenets. That’s definitely something to consider in other countries too.

What do vegans eat? →
Great article. I’d like to add nuts, almonds and seeds too. They’re just as healthy and important as everything else.

As you might or might not know, this blog/homepage has been around for years, but maybe you’re wondering who the blogger is (or in this case the bloggers are)? Wonder no more. Hi! I’m Camilla, one of the people behind this blog. I’m vegan and have been for a number of years, before that I was ovo-lacto and before that pescatarian (though at the time I didn’t know there was...

Composting for children (or other beginners) →
If you want to grow your own vegetables (or whatever you like) composting is an important part of your gardening. Basically, any vegetables or fruit etc that you eat, produce peels and so on, and those are ideal for enriching the soil in your garden.

Surviving the end of civilization
I just read an article about surviving the end of civilization. It seemed to mix serious and joking advice. Personally I found a couple of the points either impossible to follow or simply ridiculous. So I added a few of my own, so my list would contain ten points too. My points are more serious, but I claim no expert knowledge. Take these points as they are, just general advice that should be...

Being Vegan in a Speciesist World
“I will continue to be a vegetarian even if the whole world started to eat meat. This is my protest against the conduct of the world.” Isaac Bashevis Singer – Nobel Prize winning author This article is about what it means for most of us, to live in a world where we’re very much alone to feel the way we do about animal exploitation. As far as I’m concerned, it’s very...

Animal cruelty for 'science' →
Interesting article about a neuroscientist who argues against animal experiments - partly from the perspective of cruelty - but mainly because his research has told him it’s useless. All those animals are being tortured and killed for nothing.

Do plants have feelings? →
Meat eaters sometimes claim that plants have feelings, not so they can avoid eating them, but so they can ignore the fact that animals most definitely do have feelings. This article discusses the possibility of plants being sentient.

Got Soy Milk?
I found this great article on Care2 and I thought I’d share it. Read it and learn why it’s a good idea to switch from cow’s milk to a vegan alternative. It mainly goes into the crueltyfree aspects of the switch, but there are plenty of other good reasons too. For one it’s a lot more healthy for you. Soy milk doesn’t contain any cholesterol, in case you have troubles...

Soy meat
1) Mix 2 dl soy flour and 1 dl water into a firm dough.
2) Split into four parts and roll them into four long ’sausages’.
3) Pour about 1 cm of water into the pressure cooker. Put the ’sausages’ in the basket.
4) Set the cooker to the highest pressure. When it’s up choose 10 minutes.
5) Cool and take out. Let the steam out, cut into pieces roughly as long as they are thick.
