VeganMoFo: VEGANOMICON






Someone was on my side today. This book wasn't suppose to arrive until monday when I will be away. As we were leaving for a walk Peter noticed a box. I could have cried I was so excited. I ripped it open in the car and immediately started reading and scanning the pages. If I could have walked, read and drank coffee all at once I would have. With not much time to look at it today I'm still declaring it as probably the best vegan cookbook ever written. (the probably will be taken out of this statement when I'm finished reading it (like a novel) and cooking from it because I'm sure it's the best.) When I hopped out of the car to get us coffee Peter confessed to picking it up and looking at the pictures and was very excited about how good the food looked especially since he saw a photo with broccoli rabe in it. I would have loved to have made us dinner from the book tonight but we are both sick like hell..we probably shouldn't even have gone for the walk but our apartment building is trying to kill us by pumping heat into our apartment and we needed fresh air. Tomorrow is another day. A day to go food shopping and cook.

nice VeganMoFo entry. I'm heartened to know I'm not the only one who reads recipes like novels (I wonder what's going to happen next - sauteeing? blending?)
