Why did you decide to be vegan? Why art and not science?

See: http://www.formspring.me/jfbunnyBISOUS/q/14530863 ox

Art and science, paw-in-paw…

Thanks Jules!!! They’re awesome blogs :) I love adding more to my ‘to read’ list hehe

Why thank you kindly! Merry 2010

How long have you been a raw vegan?

I’m not exactly sure… perhaps I have been a live foods vegan for two years or so? 

…Since heeding a few sage doctors’ advice for treatment of Ulcerative Coltitis, Celiac Disease, and other lifelong hereditary conditions by which I am affected (regrettably posterior to sundry unsuccessful procedures/experimental trials/medical treatments/erroneous diagnoses). Pardon the vague nature of my response; one day I’ll be able to venture into more explicit detail. For me personally, live foods and holistic medicine have been life-savers, though.

What are you wearing today?

Gifted Tabitha Simmons wedges (the pink and purple Josephines), a dress of reclaimed fabrics from The Reformation (on Ludlow Street), a Prada cardigan, Pamela Love necklace and rings, a Lanvin hat, a Louis Vuitton leopard-print scarf, Wolford Satin de Luxe opaques, Maggie Moos organic socks

It may be a little too personal, but do you attend synagogue often? Are you very religious? I’m a fellow Jewwy! xxx

Not nearly as often as I did growing up. Since moving to NYC, it’s been difficult to become assimilated in a congregation without my family at my side (bumping into family and lifelong friends has always been a major draw for me to attend services). That said, although I’m Jewish by birth and have been Bat Mitzvah’d, I heartily enjoy learning about divers belief systems… I especially gravitate toward specific tenets like Ahimsa (Buddhism) and Kabbalic wisdom.

Have you ever written poetry or short stories?

Certainly.

Top 5 favourite books?

Oh goodness! Well that’s rather broad… in terms of books that I’ve (re)read in the past six months:
Joan Didion’s The Year of Magical Thinking
Helmut Newton’s Autobiography
Teddy Kennedy’s True Compass
Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility
Katharine Graham’s Personal History
…and a million more

What is your favourite snack? Do you make it yourself? On that note, what is your favourite meal to cook?

As of late? Local winter greens and radishes with a bar of Dr. Cow’s Aged Macadamia Tree Nut ‘Cheese’ http://www.dr-cow.com/products/aged-macadam-nut-cheese.html (I’m allergic to cashews) topped off with first cold-pressed unfiltered extra-virgin olive oil infused with white truffles and specks of pink Himalayan sea salt!

How tall are you?

‘Suppose 5’5” ish.
