About Me

.. click to visit my website!.."If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be cynical. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time,and build your wings on the way down." -Ray Bradbury

i am a frisky vegan woman business owner! word!wants: fellow vegans, vegetarians, compassionate folk, radicals, local~non-local~international indie businesses, shop owners, new wholesale accounts, anyone wanting custom work, artists and new friends. :)not wants: spammers, pyramid scheme folks, unapologetic fur wearers, animal haters, get rich quick scammers, stay at home mommy exploits, anyone who doesn't get the irony of my business name, anyone who is the center of their own universe, those who don't bother to read profiles before adding friends. :(

My Interests

*now you can find never felt better at: *motokitty* *union rose* *in other words* *presents of mind* *tender loving empire* *mabel and zora* at 14th and alberta , *herbivore* at 30th and killingsworth here in PORTLAND OREGON!i make stuff :). i have a website, i sell locally and at craft shows. my goal is to have my own bricks and mortar shop called NEVER FELT BETTER, of course. i love what i do and i love the people who support my dreams and me.and then there is: being vegan-living with compassion and striving for a cruelty-free and torture free life! perfecting and collecting recipes for our cookbook, vegan food and cooking of course, music, family, traveling, singing super loud whenever i can, plotting, planning, living, being happy (something i have EARNED!), remembering and honoring kelley who put more into perspective for me than she would ever get the chance to know, cheap champagne (and a cheap buzz on the side), my zoo of animals, listening to air america and cussing & shaking my fists up to the sky, letting my girls be free birds and not cogs in the machine....all in no particular order. oh and taking baths. it is fun and you should do it way more often.

I'd like to meet:



Etsy
Buy Handmade
neverfeltbetterthose worthy of mention in the acknowledgment in our family cookbook, other crafters and artists, shop owners and customers...OH AND THIS LITTLE GUY:

Music:

the Beatles. if you don't like the Beatles then fuck you. who doesn't like the Beatles? and air america (music to my ears), oh and mike patton's incarnations, too. honestly there is too much to mention but trust me i have great fucking music taste.

Movies:

eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, true romance, kill bills, pulp fiction, punch drunk love, boogie nights, magnolia, some like it hot, secretary, the piano, the last temptation of christ, mommie dearest, aqua teen hunger force dvd's over and over and over again, ren and stimpy, auntie mame, the way we were, fiddler on the roof....

Television:

any shows about ghosts: ghost hunters, most haunted...i love them all! BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, animal planet cop shows, daytime court tv like judge judy & judge joe brown (guilty pleasures), baby story on tlc, miami ink, adult swim, dateline NBC (to catch a predator should have its own cable channel).

Books:

erotica. books by john robbins (food Revolution, may all be fed), herbivore (oh wait-- that is a magazine) and lots and lots of cookbooks. i need to read more, i know, I KNOW!

Heroes:

small business owners. i used to single out women business owners, but that is ignoring alot of rad men who are my heros, too.
