The 2nd Annual Terrific Thanksgiving Turkey Pledge!
Hello beauties -
Well, Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and with that, the hustle and bustle of finding just the right food to display on the table for everyone to munch on. Stuffing! Mashed Potatoes! Cranberry sauce out of a can! Hey, you can take the girl out of New Jersey, but you can't take the New Jersey out of the girl...
This year, I am challenging you - YES YOU! - to a
TERRIFIC THANKSGIVING
TURKEY PLEDGE!!!
We did it last year with fabulous success - nearly 100 pledges on the blog!
Here's how it goes:
First: Watch this amazing video below my friend and fellow activist Ciddy Fonteboa made last year that rocked right into our hearts:
Second: In the comment section below, I want you to make a firm commitment NOT to eat turkeys this Thanksgiving. You can say something as simple as "No turkey for me!" or as long as "I would never dream of consuming turkeys because their too cute to eat, pass the tofurky please!"
I would love to see if we can get around 100 pledges by Thanksgiving this year. And don't worry - you can be a vegan, vegetarian, or meat-eater-slowly-transitioning-to-kiss-worthy-vegan and still post a comment below!
Here’s to a delicious, compassionate
holiday season!

P.S. Last year I made x-mas dinner for my dad's family--I'm hoping they'll let me take over the kitchen again so that I can lay out a massive plant-based spread. :)

One of my favorite childhood songs. :) I'm knitting a cute little turkey to put on the table in lieu of the dead version.
Love,

Here's to a fantastic family occasion that we and the turkeys (and cows etc.) can all be thankful for.
Thanks for your blog, Lindsey. It's very inspiring and I love reading it. Happy Thanksgiving!

You should see the vegan pecan stuffing, maple roasted squash and Cafe Gratitude inspired vegan chocolate mousse I've got planned.. Oh man, we will definitely NOT be suffering this Thanksgiving, nor will any innocent animals.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I am so grateful to be the 80th pledge this year: here's to my third vegan Thanksgiving - cruelty-free and still the most delicious anyone could ever dream of.
