On Track 2

Dear Reader HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Yes, indeed-y. A most fabulous, fantastic, excellent, magnificent, New Year to you.

Do I seem excited? Well, I am. Why? Because, someday soon, ALL the people of the world will be vegan. Will it happen in your lifetime? Will it happen in 2022? I want it to happen… right now.

Veganism is gaining momentum and you are the reason why. This coming year let’s make sure to share vegan information and mostly vegan food with our family and friends. They can experience the deliciousness of vegan food. With delicious food… and caring words… can we …turn the world vegan…? Hopefully yes. This will lead us to a healthier, brighter, and more compassionate future for all.

Remember, whether you are in school, visiting friends or family…the time is always right to promote veganism in every which way you can. After all, you are fighting for your future and that of your children and of course, other humans, the planet and the animals. Be a friend to the world by becoming vegan, staying vegan, and promoting vegan.

It is truly my pleasure to be on this journey with you and see how far you can take it…..compassion for all.

Let’s Eat! Vegan Pumpkin Sheet Pancakes Prep/Total Time: 40 min.

Makes 8 servings

INST RUCT IO NS • Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C) and position an oven rack in the middle.

• Stir together the almond milk and lemon juice in a medium bowl and set aside to curdle.

This is the vegan “buttermilk.”

In a large bowl, mix the flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.

To the buttermilk, whisk in the maple syrup, pumpkin puree, vanilla, and orange zest until well combined. Gradually pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking together until well combined.

Allow the batter rest for 5-10 minutes. This helps it rise.

Meanwhile, line a half sheet pan (18×13-inch pan, also referred to as a 16×11-inch pan) with parchment paper.

After allowing the batter to rest, pour the batter into prepared sheet pan and smooth out with a spatula. If using chocolate chips, scatter them on top of the batter.

Bake the pancake tray for 15 minutes. If possible, rotate the pan 180° halfway through baking to allow for even baking. The pancakes are done when they’re slightly golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the pancakes comes out clean.

Allow pancakes to cool for 5-10 minutes, then slice the pancakes into squares or rectangles. Serve with pure maple syrup and with optional toppings.

To reheat leftover pancakes, preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and place the squares on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 minutes.

NOTES

*I recommend using a relatively thin plant-based milk, such as almond milk. If you use a thick milk such as coconut milk or oat milk, the batter can be a bit too thick. If all you have is a thick milk, mix in a bit off water into the milk to thin it out. **You can use apple cider vinegar instead of lemon juice.

Did you know…

Animals - Turtles 1. Turtles belong to one of the oldest reptile groups in the world – beating snakes, crocodiles and alligators!

2. Every species of turtle lays their eggs on land.

3. When a sea turtle is resting or sleeping, they can stay underwater for 4-7 hours.

4. Turtles have a built-in compass. As we’ve mentioned before, turtles can return to the same beaches they were born on.

5. Turtles live about twice as long as humans.

6. All tortoises are turtles, but not all turtles are tortoises.

7. Land turtles, more commonly known as tortoises, are shelled reptiles that live on land as opposed to their aquatic counterparts.

8. Tortoises are land animals. Their feet are round and stumpy, adapted for walking on land. They also dig burrows with their strong forelimbs and slip underground when the sun gets too hot.

9. Most species of turtle have five toes on each limb. A few turtle species only have four toes on each limb, and even more uncommonly, three toes on each limb.

10. Leatherback sea turtles have special shells that compress when they deep dive.

11. To the naked eye, it appears turtles don’t have ears. However, behind their skin flaps, turtles have middle ear bones that carry noise vibrations down their ear canals.

12. Turtles come in ALL shapes and sizes. The bog turtle can be as little as 4-inches long, whereas the leathery turtle can weigh up to 1500 pounds!

13. Sea turtles can’t retract their head and flippers into their shells. Only land turtles can withdraw into their shells.

14. Different turtle species have been known to make strange sounds that you wouldn’t expect to come out of a turtle. Some turtles sound like a person burping and some sound like dogs barking. Some turtles sound like an old man yelling, some sound like a remote-control airplane and some even sound like chickens clucking!

15. A turtle shell is made up of 50 bones in the turtle’s skeleton and includes their spine and rib cage.

How You Can Get Started …In Activism Are you ready to be a Vegan-Activist? If you’re wondering, how you can get started, here are some suggestions:

Has anyone ever told you that you’re too young to change the world?

YOU are not!

Run for office Student government provides a chance for students to have a positive impact in their school and learn about how government works on a small scale.

Create a public awareness campaign that includes social media There are many ways to develop or participate in a public awareness campaign Educating people about an issue in order to inspire change can take place in school, in the community and online.

Do a survey about the issue and share the results Understanding what people think and why is helpful in bringing about social change.

Raise money Raising money is a good way for students to contribute to community or national efforts to address injustice.

Write a letter to a company Students can reach out to companies or organizations that they feel have done something unfair or biased. This is something do-able that can make a difference.
