A Few of My Favorite Things #5

Make sure your volume isn't too loud. The goats literally do SCREAM in this video. I have become kind obsessed with goats since visiting the farm sanctuary. I'm not totally convinced that all the yelling in the video is real. I do however find it very funny and I laughed so hard I cried the first time I watched it. We all need a good laugh!

Above is Audrey Peterman and her husband Frank. She is a huge advocate for National Parks. I stumbled across her story on the National Parks Conversation Association website. She has written books about her love for all the National Parks and shares her stories about visiting them. I plan on purchasing her book, Our True Nature. In her interview on the NPCA's website she took the words right out of my mouth many times! This being one of my favorite quotes from her:

Audrey: Having the imprint of such monumental natural wonders on my spirit gives me perspective on how infinitesimal I am in the world, and yet, how important. I am part of everything. Though a small part, I am connected to everything. It allows me to take a step back from whatever challenges I’m experiencing.

I don't listen to much rap music but every once in awhile I listen to Eminem. I like a lot of his lyrics and the above quote is from one of his songs. Every time I hear it I laugh. It's so how I am. I designed the print above on Photoshop and plan to hang it in my office. It's kind of a reminder to myself that people are always going to have something to say about my lifestyle and that I need to learn to ignore it or just laugh about it.

Chantal over on Pony Chops posted a great Vegan food review a few weeks back on (fake) cheese. When I tell people I am Vegan a lot of people say they could never give up cheese. I personally know a few vegetarians that also struggle with becoming Vegan because of their love for cheese. I was never that in love with cheese in the first place which made it very easy to give it up. For those who struggle though THERE IS HOPE! :) Read Chantal's review on Vegusto Vegan Cheese HERE.
