About
My name is Heather, I’m 21 years old, I live in California and I’m a college student. I’ve been a vegetarian since November 5, 2004. I love to cook and try new recipes. None of these recipes are my own, I’m just giving them out as ideas for dinner. I had a wonderful boyfriend named Mark who supported my vegetarianism, but recently he broke things off. We loved to cook together, so it’s something I’ll miss.
I have 8 wonderful pets: Sweet Pea (dog), Shadow, Midnight, & Twilight (chinchillas), Mason (rabbit), John and Paul (2 Betta fish), and Albert (rat). I’ve had Shadow the longest (August 2000). Midnight joined X-Mas Eve of 2000 and I adopted Twilight in January of 2007. I don’t remember the exact day I rescued Mason, but I believe it was about 5 years ago. Sweet Pea showed up at my front door in August of ‘06. I adopted Albert from Petco and I got the betta fish from my sister. I’ve had guinea pigs, rats, birds, and many other pets who have passed. Nikki, my dog, died in 2004. She was the best dog and my best friend. My dog, Chewy, who is pictured above (in the Santa hat) passed away on May 9th, 2007.
Likes: I love fresh fruits and many vegetables. I LOVE Textured Soy Protein and can’t get enough of it! Favorite foods include: orange peel vegetarian chicken, pears, bananas, pineapple, oranges, potatoes, peas, dark chocolate, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, creamy spinach penne, asparagus soup, Lemon Custard & chocolate fudge ice cream from Baskin Robbins, cheese on a stick (from HDOAS), BBQ Riblets, cottage cheese with pineapple… and the list goes on!
Dislikes: I really hate the way most people prepare tofu, all peppers (red, green, yellow… any kind), and uncooked onions. If you find onions in any of my recipes, you can be sure that they’re cooked.
