Heather's Page

Hello...Welcome to my web page! Here's a little about myself.

My name is Caren Heather Kirkpatrick, though I often go by the name Heather.  I live in North Syracuse, New York with my husband, Dan Kirkpatrick.
We have a beautiful baby girl (born September 30, 1997).
I graduated from Potsdam College in May 1994 with a B.A. in Geology. Since then I worked for CME Associates, Inc., an Engineering Firm and Testing Laboratory as a geologist.
Right now I am enjoying motherhood and not working right now.
 
 
I have been a vegetarian since 1989. My Mom, Dad, and two brothers also became vegetarians. My Dad and I became vegans after reading various literature on the cruelty of animal factory farming. My diet has gone through many transformations, but currently I have reintroduced dairy products into my diet. I am continually learning many delicious recipes from my mom, Donna Jewett, who is excellent cook by the way.  I use all types of vegetarian products in my cooking such as tofu, seitan (say-tan), tempeh (tem-pay) and Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP).  I like to add zest and spice to my meals...I like my food to taste like food!

This is my favorite site in regards to tofu--it is very informative.
