Juice Cleanse

Each evening, I have a glass of homemade nut milk. I’d never done a juice cleanse that used nut milk before but I was inspired by the Cooler Cleanse to try it. It’s such a nice way to end the day!  Go with homemade though. Store bought has a lot of additives!

I will now have two Tumblrs

Veg Beauty for all things makeup, hair, nails etc related with an emphasis on vegan & cruelty free products.

Spinach & Push Ups for health and fitness! 

Remember there is also my blog Fresh Air & Fashion and you can also follow me on Pinterest. :)

I’m trying to decide if I should create another Tumblr for fitness/health, change this one to reflect only that or do nothing. haha Thoughts? 

GO GET YOUR SWEAT ON! 

Just finished a hot 25min run outside with my dog and now I’m doing this… Sunset Workout from Tone it Up!

What can I say, I went out for happy hour with friends! One thing I love about being vegan (or a result of being vegan, I should say) is the fact that you ARE more limited and it’s harder to eat crap food. Not the healthiest day but honestly, we all know how much worse it could be (for some people). I’m glad that THIS is what a less healthy day looks like for me…because it is much healthier than it once was.

thedailywhat:

The Humane Society of the United States has released the unconscionable resultsof its undercover investigation into an egg factory owned by Kreider Farms, a top egg producer in Pennsylvania.

Among the findings:

• Birds were severely overcrowded in cages more cramped than the national average; each hen received only 54–58 square inches of space on which to spend her life.
• Injured and dead hens, including mummified bird carcasses, were found inside cages with living hens laying eggs for human consumption.
• Hens were left without water for days when a water source malfunctioned, causing many to die.
• Hens’ legs, wings, and heads were found trapped in cage wires and automated feeding machinery.
• A thick layer of dead flies on the barn floors caused a crunching sound when walking on it.

“These allegations by the Humane Society are a gross distortion of Kreider Farms, our employees and the way we care for birds,” Ron Kreider, the president of Kreider Farms, told the New York Times’ Nicholas Kristof.

This Is All Kinds of Wrong of the Day: The Humane Society decided to investigate when it noticed Kreider didn’t support legislation that would standardize and upgrade the welfare of egg-laying chickens across the industry. The Egg Products Inspection Act Amendments of 2012 is adelicious compromise between the Humane Society and the industry trade groupUnited Egg Producers.
