to break the "vegan food is bland, boring and expensive" stereotype. lowkey also to keep myself accountable in my vegan lifestyle.
why do you write in all lowercase?i don't really know. . .seems more chill/laid back to me. i'm no pro blogger or anything, just a meltonian sharing her food on the world wide web.
what is a 'meltonian'?mell-toe-nee-an: nickname for people where i live.
are all the recipes your creations?
i would be lying, like others, if i said my recipes weren't influenced. they're pretty basic, easy and cheap, but that's the way i like it! sometimes i'll use another recipe as a base recipe, but i always credit the original when i do!

do you photograph your own pictures?
certainly do. i use a nikon D300 with a 50mm lens and shoot mainly in natural light. i have no fancy props. just the sun, my camera, and a few DIY made boards.
how did you learn to take high quality photos?
my sisters a wedding photographer so she taught me my way around a DSLR and I actually use her hand-me-down camera! the rest was through youtube and articles on the internet. you can learn so much on the internet these days!

where do you get your nutritional information from?
i use cronometer. you can use the desktop version for free, or download the app for a few bucks.
are these recipes for general people or are they low calorie, low carb, high protein etc?
i try to make my recipes as healthy, yet budget friendly, as possible. i'm on no weight-loss diet, i don't count/aim for a certain percentage of macros, i don't count calories throughout my day, i just listen to what my body needs. if i start feeling run down, i'll track my nutrients for a couple of days to see if i'm lacking anything. i give nutritional values for those doing all those things so they can log them easily. i might do a "healthy" series in the future, but for now, i'm just keeping things as simple as i can!
how do i go vegan?
this is a good resourceful website!
where can i go to learn more about veganism?
the basics you need to know can be found through watching earthings [animal rights], forks over knives [nutrition benefits] + cowspiracy [environmental impact]. some good factual speeches to watch are '101 reasons to go vegan' + 'the best speech you will ever hear' [literally is].

why should i eat plant based?
my main reason for eating plant based is because i know i can thrive and be healthy without making someone suffer for it. i understand there are some who literally cannot live without animal products, but if you absolutely can, or at least can cut down, i think you should and once you have all the knowledge it's kind of an obligation. the animals, the planet and your body are counting on it.

how do i start my own blog?
there's many tutorials you can google depending on the platform you want to use [i use blogspot]. i'm aiming to make my own tutorial soon! some simple tips are: buy a domain name [just do it, it's worth it], take high quality photo's [there's plenty of budget friendly options], make your blog neat and all your content easily accessible, and show your personality [anyone can do the above, but only YOU are you, don't hide away!].
