Meet our Herbie of the Week: Kathy!

After Jesse shared her pregnancy experience as our Herbie of the Week, Kathy left a comment on Facebook about how she too was plant-based while pregnant. The only difference? She was pregnant with TWINS!

Plant-Based (Vegan) on a Cruise (Guest post by Stephanie!) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel Guests

It's summer, which means many herbies will be packing their bags and hitting the road, sky, or sea (for travel tips and help, there's a huge (HUGE!) section in The Happy Herbivore Guide to Plant-Based Living).
