My social life currently revolves around meals out with friends – a foodie farewell tour, if you will – as we count down to the move (two weeks from tomorrow!). Today is no exception, as I am having lunch in Manhattan with the graduates of the second Main Street Vegan Academy (I am proud to be among the first vegan lifestyle coaches from the inaugural training!). As I continue eating my way through the tri-state region I will leave you with this week’s news!
