Hello from Me, May Leigh

I've spent the past well, let's see, 47 days trying out new recipes, making changes, getting kind of a routine down for meals and snacks. Some have turned out great, but then like the one last night I was really looking forward to, well it did not. I recently received a great list of recipes to try out from the Peta mentor program, the ones I've tried so far have been amazing. So with all of that being said I'm going to spend some time posting some of my favorite recipes for meals and snacks on here over the next few days and week. It is actually quite funny, here in Louisiana, if you mention the word vegan, people become fearful for your life. Kids believe you are going to die from not eating meat, like how did that even happen?! There are NO local meet-up groups on being vegan, animal rights, etc...like NONE I mean I Figured as much on some of this, since hunting is a hobby and favorite past time, and they literally brought in black bears so when they become a t...

For most of my adult life I have desired to write a book, to put everything I have onto paper, to tell a story, and hope that it could give hope to just one person. For most of my adult life I have struggled to put the words together onto paper, in a way that kept me writing full force to the end. It is very hard to tell a story about a life you are still living, my lines are often blurred with faded memories and drug induced fuzziness that the timeline never quite matches up. I've recently thought that I could literally do a timeline, the things I know for sure happened at certain age and time, and fill in the blanks to figure out the others. For almost  all of my adult life I have hated my father and often my mother. This is the story I wish to tell, how I arrived there, how I lived through it, and left it behind the best I could.
