Thanks for joining me! My name is Amber and I’m a 36 year old mom of a 9 year old girl and 7 year old golden retriever. I was vegetarian 12 years ago (basically before I met the love of my life) for about 8 years. On March 1, 2020 I decided to go plant-based and only have meat or dairy every so often. My aim is a few times a year.

The reason I decided to call myself plant-based is because sometimes it feels so restrictive to say “vegan.” It’s very all-or-nothing! I know there has been a huge movement the last few years of the concept “plant-based” as it leaves room for flexibility. I do plan on adding to other posts more about why I decided to make the switch, and what I’ve learned that could maybe help someone else. For a few weeks something has been nagging at my heart strings that it’s great to go plant-based but that I could be doing more. Thus this blog!

This blog is intended to capture my journey and maybe even bring some others to the dark side of plant-based eating. (Just kidding, it’s super green over here!) I’m also athletic and love working out at home and we have set up a gym in the basement and working out at lunch break at my work’s gym.

I also like to craft, walk my dog and take pictures of flowers and nature, I also love to cook!!

Thank for reading and hope you keep joining me!
