rainbowdust919 - I can totally relate to your ex. In a totally non-creepy way. Even thought it didn't sound like that. I'll stop typing now!

Hi Rob! Yes, everything hespedal said :)

If anyone stalks my profile, it must be boring...b/c it's always the same.

so, I had to check out your profile after that comment... I did learn a few things... 1. you're very pretty and look very friendly and 2. you love to play board games and have no one to play them with! (Me too!) and I also learned that you have lots of hobbies... :)

I just joined here earlier this morning and looking forward to spending time on here and learning as much as I can. I'm so glad that I was told about this website as it looks great. I'm Jo, married to my best friend, have 3 adult children as well as 4 grandchildren and been blessed with 1 great granddaughter who will be 3 next month. We live in Southern Arizona and the rest of the family lives in Florida. We have some health challenges here and think that this website will be great for us.

I've been a user for a while, but I never did the roll call. D: Guess I should change that!

Anyway, my name is Jourdaine (jordan, not jor-DAIN), and I'm 18 years old, going to college in the fall as an art major. I'm a metal music journalist for a national website, which has been the best first job for me not just money-wise, but for the experience of getting press passes to shows, taking live photos, and interviewing bands. (: Oh and I have a terrible addiction to tattoos and piercings. I only have about 11 piercings and 3 tattoos right now, but it's slowly building up. xD

I was born and raised vegetarian and became vegan a year ago. My parents are pesco-vegetarian and my brother is a full out carnivore, but they always rely on me to cook the meals and it's always vegan. My boyfriend is vegetarian too, but he's thought about becoming vegan ever since we started dating. He's taken milk out of his diet because he likes soymilk better, so that's a start. I'm working on him... haha.

Anyway, nice to meet all of you guys! (:

Hi,
I'm Liz, 59, married 31+ years with 5 kids and 5 grandkids.  My husband has been a vegan for almost 17 years.  I, after being a vegetarian for 10 years, joined him 7 years ago.  One of our kids is a vegetarian chef.  The others will eat anything, but are veg when they're home.

HI!

My name is Sara Lopez, but most people just call me Lopez.
I just joined this site yesterday and am loving it!
I have been veggie for about 3 and half months now and feel great.
I come from a Spanish family and live in Middle America, so needless to say, vegetarianism is still very foreign. I look to the net for support.

I do Social Media for a living, I work for 8th Continent Soy Milk. (If anyone wants a coupon- hit me up and I can give you a URL!)
So this pretty much means I blog, Facebook, Twitter, and reach out to people on a person-to-person bases to try to introduce them to 8th Continent soy milk.
I am fairly tomboyish- but there are two things that turn me into instant chick mode. Ya know the whole "awwwwwww!!!!" chick mode.
1- puppies and dogs
2- flying kites (I fly my kite at least once a week)

Anyways, I am in love with a man who is in school training to become a helicopter pilot. He is in the army. Please NOTE THIS!!! I am anti-war, but I support the troops. Way too many people get those things mixed up with each other. He is anti-war as well. So the Hippie and the Soldier meet. :-)

I love meeting new people and hearing other people's opinions!

Wow- I'm a huge Social Networking geek hehe.
It is great to meet all of you!!!

I just joined and haven't posted much yet.  I'm 48, veg*n for 20 years ( mostly ovo-lacto but vegan for a few years and always vegan-leaning)  along with DH, with whom I'm raising two vegetarian kids, now aged 17 and 13.  We were married for a few years before we went veg*n, and our kids have never known any other way of life.  We have 4 retired racing greyhounds, a pair of cockatiels, 2 9-yr-old  goldfish, and a betta.  I teach English as a second language and like learning languages, gardening, volunteering at our city's animal shelter.

I love the recipes on this site, all the more because I can see what people who try the recipes think of them.   :howdy:

Thanks Hespedal ! We rock!!  ;)b

(Warning, vegweb may be addictive and take over your life, but we're nice, so dont leave us ;)b)

haha.  so true.
