Malina Bleeding Heart Morris

I'm 30, from Arkansas, and moved to Portland in September 2010. I've been (about 98%) vegan since May 2010. I'm always looking for new recipes to try. My main hobbies are cooking, yoga, gaming, and working on my cookbook. I started my personal cookbook when I was about 11 and it has grown into a massive 3-ring binder since then (and a small one that I moved the meat recipes to). I'm trying to catalog everything into my recipe box on this site. I miraculously acquired a taste for beer, so I've been enjoying trying and learning about new local craft beers and checking out Oregon wineries. My newest challenge (that I haven't been able to work on much due to limited kitchen space in our apartment...grr...) is veganizing my huge collection of non-vegan recipes, and making it tasty. Veganizing isn't necessarily hard, but making it work well and taste good is quite a challenge.
