Who we are and why we're here...
Your fellow travelers...
Hi. I'm Judy...wife, mother and new grandmother. Initially trained
as a medical secretary, I have devoted most of my life to working in
healthcare settings. A love for the elderly led me to pursue a Gerontology
Certificate through Misericordia University. I enjoy yoga and pilates
and consider myself to be a spiritual explorer. I am also a vegetarian who
believes that non-violence includes the animal species.
I'm Rich...husband, father and new grandfather. I am an artist with a love for "entrepreneuring". I am a "flexitarian" but don't write me off yet. You've heard the comedian say, "If I'd known I was going to live so long I'd have taken better care of myself!" Right? Part of my "journey", I guess. I have cut my meat consumption by more than 99% and am working my way to being totally vegetarian.
We are the proud parents of three grown children and the proud owners of Lexy, a three year old Sheltie. After 36 years of marriage we have learned that change is the only thing that's certain. Originally trained as a computer programmer/systems analyst I (Rich) spent 30 years in the corporate world. After taking an early retirement, I enjoyed pursuing my artistic endeavors and flying my paraplane. Eventually situations dictated that I re-join the workforce. But the entrepreneur in me was not lost or asleep and so...here we are.
We built this site because we do believe that this is a "journey" of sorts. We believe it involves not only a move to better eating but a shift in "thinking" as well. It is spiritual as well as "physical". It is ecological and financial. It truly is an evolution of "soulfulness and stewardship".
Above all, we want to make this website something of value for everyone who visits. We think we are collecting and creating some great vegetarian recipes. There are terrific ideas about being more environmentally conscious as well as interesting articles that will, hopefully, provoke some thought and perhaps even a response! We hope you enjoy the site and please tell us a little about yourself as well! We wish you every success!
