I swear I wasn't looking for this intentionally...

...it just came up while I was searching vegan blogs and well, it's too good not to share.

Definitely more on the bougey end though. Bamboo sheets are involved and its their book is printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper.  Is this book for you? "You'll also tap into the emerging sexual community while shopping for organic aphrodisiacs or logging onto green dating sites. Eco-Sex will open new avenues for the health of the planet and your body."

 Don't believe me?  http://www.ethicalocean.com/product/eco-sex-book


 

















Gotta make sure the condom manufacturers are getting their "fari" share (I believe they meant to write "fair.")

You know you're a vegan when....

You receive inquiries from your non-vegan friends inquiring about the uses and purchasing locations of nutritional yeast, a.k.a. Nutch (pronounced "nooch").  This what not the first time I have received a text of this sort.

This is what I received yesterday from Cara, if I may...."Hey! Happy Friday! What brand of nutritional yeast do you use and what can I use it for (other than kale chips)?"

Oh my dear fried, you made my day.  I know they must have giant tubs of nutch in the bulk section of your Whole Foods on Lincoln and Rose in LA?

Of course, here at the Harmon House we've got Berkeley Bowl.  However, when I'm in SF, I have a new love: Rainbow Grocery- partially because it's all vegetarian, partially because it's around the corner from my donation-based yoga class, but  mostly because I look forward to leaving the office to peruse the vegan baked-goods/chocolate section on my lunch break.  Did I put myself in a box yet? And while I'm in line, I get to look at the ridiculously wonderful magazine stand!

This is for real folks. In case you can't make out the titles... Midwifery Today, Shambala Sun: Does Meditation Really work? (really? this is debatable?), The Mountain Astrologer: The Return of Venus (It is quite magnificent to have it back in the western sky), and Mother Earth News.

Idea for future posts: Things overheard at Rainbow Grocery or Berkeley Bowl or even better "Shit people who shop at BB and RG say."  You got material?  Feel free to guest blog:)
