Hi again!

Hey blog readers,

I feel like my head is spinning with all the amazing products I'm ordering.. I just want to share all these beautiful things with you! That's really my goal. Fill the store with wonderful, beautiful, heart-warming, fun-loving, things that make life as a vegan (or vegetarian, or kind & compassionate person) fun & easy. Right now I'm stocking up with tons of cool stuff for the Toronto Vegetarian Food Fair that is happening in 3 WEEKS! Eeek!

Probably my favourite thing to talk about lately is To-Go Ware. Awesome company, everything is made sustainably, fairly, with recycled products & they are so cute!! Check out this fun set of rePEaT utensils. The utensils are made from bamboo & the holder is made from recycled PET plastic bottles.


Who doesn't want to carry their lunch in a beautiful little stainless steel carrier? You can even accessorize with a beautiful bag meant just for your tiffen box, with a little pocket for your bamboo cutlery!



The next new awesome products available at www.veganslovelava.ca are vegan condoms! They come in 3 different sizes & a bunch of funky flavours including strawberry, vanilla, wildberry, blueberry & licorice. You don't have to be that "i'm vegan, well except for condoms, because vegan condoms are impossible to find" anymore. These condoms are PETA approved cruelty-free, contain no animal ingredients & are not tested on animals. LOVE them!


In other exciting news, LAVA has become THE PLACE to get SSOV gear in Canada. We are the official Canadian carrier, and my mission is to make sure that the most amount of people join the Secret Society of Vegans, without letting anyone know there is a Secret Society. Because there isn't. If you get that, then you need to let others know by proudly showing off your SSOV gear. Like a t-shirt, hat, or maybe an apron!




If you're wanting to read up on what veganism is all about, or maybe watch a dvd to better understand your vegan friend, kid, parent, LAVA can help you out! We have a growing collection of great books & dvds all about living a compassionate lifestyle. Here are a couple of my favourites:



Of course, if you're looking for something in particular, but can't find it, please let us know! Or if you're going to be at the Toronto Vegetarian Food Fair in September, and you really want to make sure that we bring that special product that you have your eye on, please let us know! We have so much great stuff, we can't possibly have it all at the food fair, so just let us know & we'll make sure we bring it.

love, kelly

Dennis Kucinich for President!

I am absolutely totally in love with vegans who consider it their mission to spread love, joy & compassion around the world.

Vegan music continued...

ok, i know i'm definitely going to lose some cool points here... but i also have to mention that i like shania twain, kd lang & bryan adams. they're all Canadian & they're all vegan! is that why i like them? i don't know... but hey, at least i'm being honest! i don't actually own albums by any of them (back track.. back track!!) but they all deserve a high five for their music & their veganism.

The Vegan Police (they live inside my head)

On Sunday I had a super relaxed cool chat about a ton of random topics with Dylan from The Vegan Police. It's amazing how much stuff you can talk about in a 1/2 hour. We talked about our mutual love for Animal Voices, TOFU, amazing vegan bands, animal sanctuaries... well you should just listen here:
