Stella Maeve: Try Everything Once
I think that helping the Earth is a big, big thing. I recycle. When I go grocery shopping, I bring my burlap sack, my burlap bags. In L.A., you see it a lot more than New York, but I definitely see more and more people doing it, making a difference and every little bit helps. Don’t use plastic bags. If you can afford it, buy a Prius. Whatever you can do to help. Ride a bike.
Try new and different things that you wouldn’t normally do and go check it out. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to do it again, but just something different. Mix it up. Always look for something new to try. Venice Beach has a drum circle every Saturday. I like to go do that. I bring my hand drum and I play. I just think it’s important to listen to music and fill your mind with other things. I really like to paint. I just bought some charcoals too to try to do some charcoal artwork on a canvas.
I try everything once and if I don’t like it, I won’t do it again. Same with food – my dad was a chef and he always taught me try everything once, and if you don’t like it, don’t eat it again. Snake was the craziest thing I’ve tried. It tastes like chicken.
Here’s Stella talking about the environment:

A self-proclaimed TV fanatic, there isn’t a Bravo marathon she hasn’t vegged out to, she still mourns the loss of “Friday Night Lights,” and can’t go to sleep on Thursday night if she hasn’t watched “The Vampire Diaries.”
