For those of you who have not yet experienced Native Foods Café or do not have one in a city near you, then it is my pleasure to share with you this video of my pigging out and enjoying every bite of my vegetarian meal at Native Foods Café’, Culver City location. If I could’ve ordered one of each of the 35+ meatless and dairy-free chef crafted menu items, I would’ve been in absolute heaven.
Join EJ as she visits Richmond, Virginia's 9th Annual Vegetarian Festival. This celebration of the meatless lifestyle was just what I needed to be around other "like" minded vegetarians and to generate some new ideas for recipes, videos, and how I can continue to play my small part in helping people become healthier and more informed vegetarians. I had a blast and I encourage each and everyone of you to visit a Vegetarian Food Festival at least once a year.
Fun and fabulous organic candies, treats, and baking specialties. No Gelatin, Gluten-Free, and Vegan. Now that's my type of treat!

It was love at first bite I tell ya!.
