Vegetarian lifestyle: kitchen design
Being a vegetarian determines a different lifestyle than that of other non-vegetarian people. When you are vegetarian or vegan, you are paying attention to all the small stuff life has to offer. For example, a vegetarian is more preoccupied with their health, and they really enjoy things life offers them.
Nowadays, being eco and vegetarian is a trend, and this trend has been extended even to the kitchen interior designs. It shouldn`t come as a surprise to enter a vegetarian house and find this funny chair. How about sitting at a chair and eating vegan food on a vegan table? Surely you will be happier even if you won`t be serving meat at that table. There is already a big competition on vegetarian trend, and there is a variety of modern kitchen designs. What is truly important is to find what is suitable to you and your family’s lifestyle. If you don`t have a vegetarian family and you are the only one eating vegetarian food, you have to understand the other family members. You don`t need to buy all the chairs in the house in vegetable form. You can buy one for yourself, and maybe the other members will enjoy it and will ask you to get one for them too.
A lot of stores are inspired by eco friendly products. It is in your hand to find the eco products which solve environmental challenges, and which are funny, desirable and functional at the same time.
When choosing some eco friendly products, you will enjoy a double benefit: you like that product and you are giving a helping hand to the planet.

What do you think, are the veggies so hot, that the women can`t resist to them? Or if you are a man, what do you prefer the women from video or the veggies?

Sexiest vegetarian celebrities of 2008
We all appreciate the celebrities which could be models for us. Most of the kids are staring at celebrities and they just want to copy them. Unfortunately few celebrities have a model life and our kids could labor under a delusion. This thing is true for the next 2 celebrities. Both are vegetarian and were chosen to be the sexiest vegetarian celebrities of 2008. Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce you :
Leona Lewis and Anthony Kiedis
Sincerely i`m surprised because Pamela Anderson is not the sexiest vegetarian celebrity, but that is probably she gets older. She thinks that most of the animals have intelligence and strong personalities and we are promoting cruelty if we eat meat.

Simple vegetarian recipe for Valentine`s Day
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 4 potatoes
- 1 beetroot
- olive oil
- sea salt
- various herbs, like basil, thyme, oregano, parsley, dried celery root & leaves, fennel,
- onion powder, nutmeg, black pepper, chives
Directions:
Cook potatoes and beetroot till tender.The beetroot needs more time, so either put it in first, or take out the potatoes when done, and finish the beetroot separately. Mash and mix in oil and whatever spices
and herbs your heart desires. I like to serve this with radishes, cos
the colour matches, and ruccola or any other nice lettuce.
If you shape the mash to hearts, and cover in sesame seeds, you have a nice valentines snack! Also, if you make a big portion and have
cold leftovers, you can heat them in a frying pan (skillet) like this.
Alternately, you can mash the potatoes separately, mix in oil & herbs, and then only mix in the mashed beetroot partly, so you get a marble effect.
I bet kids’ll like this bright magenta coloured mash!
Use this as a side dish, or a snack, or as a topping on shepherd’s pie
Hope you like it! Please send comments!
