Why We’re Going Vegan

December 2, 2015 By Kelly

We’re going vegan. I know. We’ve dumped sugar, I’ve been gluten-free for 5 years, and I’ve given up on dairy (it doesn’t agree with me). And now we’re going vegan. Yes, I’m still eating food. :p Before you think I’m crazy, hear me out. I was vegan and then vegetarian for nearly 7 years prior […]

September 30, 2014 By Kelly Leave a Comment

“Why is the sky blue?” “How do you turn off Niagara Falls?” It can be done! To fix erosion issues in 1969 the dam was shut off.  “How do you think lobsters hear even though they don’t have ears?” Kids are curious little creatures. They come up with all kinds of questions that can baffle even […]
