(but, i digress....)
Jason and Pia have designed their lives carefully, so they can spend their time creating and making music when they are not working to pay the rent.
They are vegan.
Back in June, I wrote about cooking vegan meals when I visited them. They became vegan by way of elimination. They eliminated foods that would cause them distress, or medical problems in the long run. Now, their eating style supports their busy life beautifully.

They eat small meals, often, mainly stuff they get from their farmer's market or grow themselves. Their friends bring them eggs from their coops, and they buy legumes and nuts in bulk from known sources.
They work outside the home, their busy lifestyle is the same as yours. They pack healthy snacks to have before and after shows, after work, during work.Eating often keeps us fueled evenly throughout the day. Big meals would actually slow us down.
When I confronted vegan cooking in June, I was skeptical and anxious. I knew I'd be hungry and cranky. I was never hungry. I actually lost five pounds in those three weeks, and have kept those pounds off, just by having smaller meals.
