I’ve been vegan for about 12 years (13 in January) after reading some discussions on Reddit about the theme, they hit me really hard after a beloved dog companion passed away.

I make pb&j daily, since it’s so easy and yummy. I often eat beans and rice, fried rice, the most varied curries and farofa!

  • I really like autum, so I can cook my favorite pumpkin curry every week. It’s so simple!

    • 1 can of diced tomatoes
