The Unvegan supports Haiti. With food!
As everyone knows, almost two weeks ago, Haiti was hit with a devastating earthquake. Other than donating by text message or contributing in other small ways, a bunch of the food trucks of LA banded together for a huge fundraiser at T-Lofts in West LA.

Hungry workers.
As I sat on my couch in the morning, waiting for my English Muffin to toast, I realized that I didn’t actually have a Newsweek to read. This was very disappointed, so I turned to my iPhone and checked Twitter. Thinking nothing new would be there at such an ungodly hour (8:30), I was just hoping to kill time. But then I saw it.

The taste of skiing?
Colorado is definitely a beer state, and not just because Coors comes from the Rocky Mountain State.

The brewery, by the way, is actually no longer in Breckenridge, having expanded and moved to Denver in 1992.
