I'm so excited. I just found out that Robin Robertson, the author of one of my favorite vegan cookbooks, Vegan Planet
, is out here in the blogosphere. Her blog is just over a month old and I've already bookmarked a few recipes I'd love Jane to try. Just so you don't think badly of me for that last comment, we have a rule in our house: since Jane does 99% of the cooking, I'm not allowed to whine about what she's cooking. If I would like her to make something I have to suggest it in advance. And I will get it, usually in the very near future, maybe even that day if I've asked early enough and we have the ingredients on hand. It works for us -- Jane claims she likes not having to come up with the menu for every meal we eat.
Anyway, we found Vegan Planet in our library sometime early in our vegan venture. As I've mentioned before, we try to test drive a cookbook before buying it. So, it came home with us for three weeks, and we drooled over many of the recipes. It now has pride of place on our cookbook shelf.

Save Money At Asian MarketsJane and I had the day off today. Instead of hopping in the car we did the environmentally friendly (and money saving) thing and took the train in to China Town. It was a fun expedition and we discovered the local Asian market. It's not that we...
Fatty's Restaurant -- YUMClose to our home, is a wonderful vegetarian restaurant called Fatty's. Last night was our fourth visit there. Honestly, I don't know why I haven't blogged about them prior to today; the food is excellent, and many dishes are or can be prepared...
Vegan SushiSo I finally had vegan sushi. Sushi/sashimi, the non-vegan version, was something that Jane and I adored. And we knew, that like with pizza, we wouldn't find the vegan versions nearly as satisfying. So we've avoided the stuff. On our last...

Soy Milk Maker Review
I stopped by your blog to check out the photo of your Valentines’ dinner (which looks wonderful) and was happy to see the nice post you wrote about my new blog and also about my book, Vegan Planet. Thanks so much!
Thanks for commenting that our dinner looks wonderful. Jane did an excellent job, although she’s loathe to take credit for doing something as simple as heating up a Tofurky.
We were very excited to find your blog. Good luck!
I have that cookbook!
Thanks for her blog link.
Kara,
Don’t you just love that cookbook? (I’m starting to sound like a stalker.) You’re welcome.
