Looking for a Vegan Holiday Gift? Try PawJ Boots!

Hello friends and fellow animal lovers! With the holidays coming up fast, you might be looking for some special gifts for friends and family members. What better way enjoy the  wintery season than by buying a pair of cruelty-free boots!

I discovered PawJ after my aunt bought a pair of their Ugg-like boots and fell in love with them! For those of you who didn't know, most Uggs aren't vegan and are actually made with either leather, sheepskin, or animal fur. Although there are a few vegans who won't be deterred by this, most will as part of being a true vegan means that you don't buy or wear anything made from an animal. If you are looking for, or missing, that warm, fuzzy feel of a good boot PawJ has got you covered!

My Very Vegan Thanksgiving ❤️

Hello friends and fellow animals lovers! I hope that you all had a wonderful holiday and a happy Thanksgiving. As I mentioned in my Vegan Guide to Thanksgiving post, my family had a fully vegan Thanksgiving this year, and I thought I would share my experience with you!

My mom, aunt, and I spent the afternoon cooking up a storm in my grandfather's kitchen and we had a great time! It was so nice to spend time with family in the kitchen and to try out these amazing vegan recipes. I have listed the recipes that we tried below, and if you are ever looking for holiday recipes, may they be vegan or otherwise, I would 100% recommend trying these!

Vegan Sausage and Apple Stuffing by Plant Based Jane
Garlic Chive Cream Cheese Vegan Mashed Potatoes by Rabbit and Wolves 
Cashew Mac 'n Cheese by The Compassionate Dreamer (Hey, that's me!) 
The Best Damn Vegan Biscuits by Minimalist Baker
The Best Easy Vegan Cranberry Sauce by Sam Turnbull (It Doesn't Taste Like Chicken Blog)
The Best Vegan Gravy by This Savory Vegan
Five Minute Vegan Creamed Spinach by Spruce Eats

My aunt also made steamed green beans, and my grandma put together an autumnal salad. It's safe to say, we had a lot of leftovers!

In addition to making these recipes, we also ordered two vegan turkeys that we prepared.  One was from The Herbivorous Butcher, and the other from The Uncreamery. Both of which were delicious, but the one from The Herbivorous Butcher was the favorite!
