Do you have vegan friends?

If you are a baby boomer vegan, like I am, do you have any vegan friends? Although I am finding other vegans about my age in other states or areas (that I am interviewing for my book), I am finding it difficult to find even one locally.

How I wish for friends with similar interests! Lately, I am really getting to adore yoga as well, and likewise, I have not even one friend who is my age and interested in yoga. My other interests include Asian Art and fashion.

This is getting to be very frustrating - and lonely at times, I must admit!

Well, friends or not, I am on a path for my own self. I am on a path that makes me happy inside even if I am the only one in the state of Pennsylvania! Being vegan has changed my life and now yoga is transforming me as well, from the inside out.

Still, it would be so great to have someone to do things with that have similar interests.

Best wishes to you all, and I hope you have better luck than I have in this area. Let me know what you think, fellow baby boomer vegans!

Need to Interview Fellow Vegan Baby Boomers

Are you a baby boomer (born between 1944 and 1964)? Did you become a vegan during middle age? If so, I would like to interview you for a book I am writing on the subject of Baby Boomers who are vegams. Would you consider being interviewed for the book?

The book will feature success stories and a photo of each vegan Baby Boomer. The purpose of the book is to provide inspiration and to encourage other middle aged foks like us to join the lifestyle.

I would appreciate hearing from any volunteers who might be willing to answer my interview questions. Please write to me at youngbon@gmail.com if you are interested.

With my sincere thanks, Bonnie Young

Global Warming and Veganism

World Bank scientists conclude that eating meat causes more than half of global warming (conservatively).

Vegetarian Summerfest

I recently attended Vegetarian Summerfest in Johnstown, PA. I learned so much and enjoyed the company of over 600 vegetarians during this five day event. People stayed overnight, ate together and attended a great selection of classes on the various aspects of being a vegetarian.

I created a video during one of the dinner meals but it was too long, so I split it in half. Here is the second half of the video, the part where I interview a few folks that I see as I walk around the room. I hope it gives you an impression of the fun the attendees had, including me! Here is the video:
