Happy World Veg Day, Everyone!
I am extremely excited for this upcoming week! It is officially Veg Week in San Diego. That means I will have a lot to blog about. There will be a variety of M.D.s speaking about the health benefits of a vegan diet, cooking demonstrations, a movie showing, an ice-cream social, a bake sale and live music. I feel like it's my birthday! :)
See what is happening in your community today & this entire month and get involved. Pledge to go Veg for a day, a week or even the entire month and you can anywhere from $250- $1,000! How is that for incentive.

- Reduce the risk of major killers such as heart disease, stroke and cancer while cutting exposure to foodborne pathogens
- Provide a viable answer to feeding the world’s hungry through more efficient use of grains and other crops
- Save animals from suffering in factory-farm conditions and from the pain and terror of slaughter
- Conserve vital but limited freshwater, fertile topsoil and other precious resources
- Preserve irreplaceable ecosystems such as rainforests and other wildlife habitats

Don't you want to hug them & kiss them?
















I'm very excited because my future daughter-in-law, who lives in San Diego is taking the pledge. I'm hoping she will convince my son to do so too.
ReplyDeleteA lot of the veg restaurants in the SD area are offering discounts this week too. Yum!
Wow! Good for her! I hope she finds that it isn't as challenging as she may have thought. It's great that veg restaurants are participating by offering discounts. I am definitely going to take advantage!
ReplyDeleteHappy Veg day!
ReplyDeleteYAY!!! Happy Vegetarian Day! I can't wait to hear all about the festivities :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, there is a teeny tiny chance I might run the Malibu Half...unfortunately I won't know until closer to the race if I can. I really hope I can! My friend is running it in preparation for the LV RnR Full, she ran her first race, a half, this September and is such an inspiration. Just like you!
I'm not a Veggie, but happy Veg day! Lol :P
