video via youtube I thought this song was an appropo choice for this week’s Food n Music selection.

The 30 Day Vegan Project
Have you been following my 30 Day Vegan Project? I honestly didn’t think I would make it this far but so far so good. Cravings have been suitable stymied by helpings of trail mix and oatmeal.
