I Know It’s Over: RIP QuarryGirl.com
Is it really so strange that last week my friend and fellow vegan blogger Quarry Girl decided it was time to stop updating the wildly popular QuarryGirl.com – and announced it with little fanfare or self-congratulations? To some the site may have appeared inflammatory, even arrogant, in its defense of veganism… perhaps, sometimes, seeming louder than bombs. Always... Read More
20 Years
I’ve hit the age where I don’t look forward to birthdays. Once you hit the last benchmark for growing older, being able to rent a car (25/26), what else is there to commemorate?

To read about my first stop in Japan, Tokyo, go here. In the middle of my Tokyo visit, I spent two wonderful days in Kyoto, which I can definitely say was my favorite stop. I had some of the best vegan... Read More
