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).

Cruises are always a popular vacation choice, especially this time of year. Scott and I actually went on a cruise back in 2007. I made sure to contact the cruise ahead of our trip to tell them about our dietary restrictions and they …

A Vegan Taste of Nice, France & Monaco (South of France) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

As you may have heard, I'm in France this summer.

A Vegan Taste of Disneyland (Plus the Vegan Truth About Dole Whip) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

On Wednesday, Team HH and I visited the Happiest Place on Earth (a.k.a. Disneyland and Disney California Adventure).

One of my assistants is California-born, and loves Disneyland, so when I casually dropped into conversation I'd never been, she said "Umm... I think HH HQ needs a field trip." Actually, she just looked at me like I was a space alien, and with a slight hint of pity, which I translated to meaning we needed to take a field trip to …
