Okay, I don't like public scenes, especially parents yelling at their children, lovers' spats, etc. In addition I am a freethinker and my boyfriend studies philosophy. I am a friend of all animals both tamed and wild. Our cats are not vegetarians, though my boyfriend (significant other, long-term partner, whatever) is. They are purebreds, of the breed alley caticus (okay, American shorthair I guess). I have no kids, just cats, Kumquat, Cranberry, and more recently Quincy and Kiwi. or overseas, but finding vegan dishes is much harder.

Zaar Chefs I have met so far: Elmotoo, justcallmeToni, ~Rita~, Midwest Maven, Bird&Buddha (both of them) and most recently, Ms*Bindy from upstate New York:) Wonderful, sweet, friendly people and great chefs! Most relevant thing to mention here is that I am a vegetarian, and recently became a vegan (almost 100%). All of our cats were born in the wild and adopted by us.
