Vegan Desserts
Let me start off by saying that I am not Vegan though I secretly wish I was.That sort of commitment to food impresses me like nothing else. I on the other hand if I had my choice would live on a diet of cheese and carbs. This has to change and not to sound all GOOP ,but it's going to start with me cutting out dairy products. Baby steps for a healthy lifestyle, baby steps led me to Babycakes. Babycakes is a New York based bakery that specializes in vegan cupcakes and donuts. Never have I had such a desire to take up baking, the idea of eating a healthy version of red velvet cupcakes excites me. Who doesn't love desserts? the same people who say they don't watch TV, weird kind of people.. Vegan desserts works for me me because although I rarely eat meat because I am kosher , the times I do ,I without a doubt want something sweet after. Mixing meat and dairy is just a Kosher no-no.. SO these options are great for the cooks in my life my mom and Joyce. I also discovered vegan ice cream , which I will now be substituting for frozen yogurt. YES worse than me giving up cheese is me giving up Frozen YOGURT , the day has come... Stayed tuned while I become that person I once mocked, that discusses their health choices and posts pictures of their days baking adventures...
Next I have to battle my fish intake (4-5 times a week) , I'm convinced I have mercury poisoning. I think about this at least 5 times a day..
This place looks amazing.

i'm not vegan either, more like "very vegan-friendly". i too have a weakness for seafood and am more stringent about the no-dairy. anyway, you should go to Lula's Sweet Apothecary in NY. really cute vegan ice cream parlor. they even have soft serve!
Good luck!!! Better you than me... I'm addicted to chocolate, but i can't see that changing anytime soon :). One day i will be healthy!
Good luck! I've tried various thing in the past but always fall off the wagon. I don't like it when I start to get too fixated which always happens :)
