There is more to us than mere sisterhood and veganism, so we like to think anyway.


The point of our blog is to give a Girl
’s perspective on being vegan in today's world and to inform you on daily dealings with being vegan in NZ; friends, family, food, shopping, boys (i.e. lack of vegan ones and so the arising issue of choosing to be vegansexual or not) and so on.


We want to bring up common and not so common issues for vegan beings and help find answers and/or ways to deal with these issues as well as give a better understanding of our views and lifestyle to the non vegan creatures amongst you and offer support and advice for those wanting to head the vegan way. JUST DO IT!

For us, being vegan is about making an educated decision by looking at all the information available to us (mmmm Google
and of course Peter Sankoff, the man, the legend, and above all, the Awesomator who got our thoughts on the matter going in the first place) about the impact us humans have on our surroundings, on our environment and most importantly about our contribution to the unnecessary suffering of other sentient beings.


Unlike some of you think...our decision to go vegan is not based on wanting to be a 'skinny bitch' although this is a rather welcomed outcome and we are not complaining
, (in saying this it is important to note that veganism does not inhibit our love of bread and potatoes, so do not be fooled) nor is the decision to go vegan based on being healthier, although this is also a welcomed outcome and again, we are NOT complaining.


For us, being Vegan is about taking responsibility for our actions and no longer turning a blind eye to what goes on in order for us to get our food, our clothing, our entertainment and so on. We have a choice and we need not compromise our health by choosing compassion. We do not need meat for optimum mental and physical performance! FACT!


Every action has a reaction. (FACT)


Now... go vegan or die (we make joke)
