Vegan Shop-Up

The truth is, I've never been to the Brooklyn Vegan Shop-Up.  Every month I put it on my calendar, and every month either work or races intervene.  But I will make it there one day soon.

There are times that I am out with friends and I'm the only "pain in the ass" vegan at the table.  Not that I care since I eat what I choose to eat.  I also shocked when a fast food delivery car passes me on the street.  I can't possibly be the only one who has seen Forks Over Knives.  But then again, at the present moment, I am solely trying to better my life.  I'm not looking to evangelize fruits and vegetables, nor convert anyone.  That is what I am returning to school in January for.

For now, I am simply thrilled that the Vegan Shop-Up exists in my home Borough.
