Intro!


Hello blogging world! There are so many great blogs out there that I hesitate to start another one… but I’m going to anyway!

I’ve been borrowing ideas from other blogs for so long that I figure it’s high time I start my own. So here’s an intro to me: I’m a college student who’s lived around the world and currently goes to SMU, in Texas. (I transferred from Bryn Mawr in Pennsylvania.) I’ve been a vegan for about 7 years  and vegetarian for a year before that. I am an avid animal-lover and became vegan whilst living in China, which was easy to do because they don’t eat much cheese and ice cream there (my favorite non-vegan foods).

I’m happy to be part of the blogging community!!!

    Hello! I’m not sure how I stumbled onto your blog, but I’m glad I did. I look forward to hearing about your adventures, and stories from all the places you’ve lived (I’ve also moved around a lot in my life).
    Cheers!

    AHH! ahah i FOUND YOUR FIRST POST!! DANG GIRL you’ve been blogging for ages!!!!!!!

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      Hahahahahahahaha oh my word, you are too funny! Every time I think you can’t get any funnier… 🙂 I saw “comment on intro post” and was like, “Huh? When did I write a post titled Intro?” lol

    You are adorable Katie! I love your blog! Initially I was “forced” into becoming vegan because I found out I was allergic to dairy products and eggs. I was already vegetarian. And, I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009. I changed my lifestyle and beat cancer! It is with the help of blogs like yours that I have become a creative cook with healthy foods. It goes to show that you can eat ultra-clean, enjoy food, and restore health! Keep up the good work Katie!

  7. Lisa says:

    hahah I LOVE your first post! Your just so sweet and thoughtful- certainly my fav vegan blog! 🙂

  8. Elizabeth Kaylene says:

    I’d probably die if I could find my first post. It was on Diaryland or something, hahaha. Your first post rocks, though. You’re too cute!

  9. Katy says:

    Oh, wow! I’ve been on a quest for gluten-free, dairy-free baking that is within the resources of a college student. (In terms of expense, yes, but also just prep time, equipment needed, practicality of storage, etc. – so single serving desserts? Revolutionary.) Your blog is a convenient resource and it looks like you have so much fun with it, that I’m now dying to try some of your recipes! So thank you. I also wanted to say that it’s uncanny how perfect this is for me. Case in point: I just transferred from Bryn Mawr.

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      That’s so cool! (Well, not cool that you had to transfer… but cool that I know someone else in the same boat ;).)
      I loved Bryn Mawr, but I never regret my decision to leave. Hopefully you’ll feel the same way!

  10. Cheri @ The Watering Mouth says:

    Katie! I can’t believe I’ve loved so many food blogs for so long and I JUST NOW found your blog! AAHH, especially being obsessed with chocolate as I am….oh well, now I’m here! Thank god for Pinterest. I just started my own food blog and look so forward to trying out some of your recipes! Thank you for continuing to write this whole time until I found you! 🙂

    And by the way – this is a GREAT first post.

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      Aw thank you, Cheri! And lol thanks for reminding me about this post… it’s so old!
