RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have been a vegan for 11 years, although, my one vice, I hate to admit, is a little spoon of honey in a nice cup of tea occasionally.
My boyfriend and I live together Cambridge, Ontario. He's new to the area, but I have lived here my whole life. He isn't officially vegan, but since he loves my cooking, he has vegan days a few times a week.
I love to bake all sorts of different treats and I tend to make up recipes as I go...I usually forget to write down the ingredients so we never have the same thing twice - but I find some recipes are more interesting that way. My favourite cook book right now is called "Foods that Don't Bite Back" which was a birthday presesnt from a good friend. It has a lot of simple but amazing recipes that are quick to prepare.
I am a very active person and I love getting lots of exercise. I take yoga classes and I love to run. My boyfriend and I are constantly out doing some sort of physical activity whether it's biking or hiking or playing a round of golf together.
