The First Vegan Health and Fitness Expo

Spent the day at the first Vegan Health and Fitness Expo.  It was a great start to what I hope will become an annual event. It was a really great two day event with vegan vendors and informative speakers.  I also found out that domesticated dogs can be vegans too. There was too much information about healthy living that cannot be shared in a blog post so I recommend everyone go next time. A few great quotes from today: "If you want to avoid taking that blue pill, you better eat that green leaf." "People always look for good news about their bad habit." "Peace begins on your plate."  



Chef AJ cooking demo.  It is really easy to cook healthy vegan food.
