Hope you can make it to the Veg Fest (Pdx has a pretty nice Veg. NW group!), I'll even drag around my copy of Veganomicon and VCCTOTW just in case you are there :) p.s. snow in April, not the norm around here, but it's known to happen. My boyfriend (out of state transfer) never understood why I'd go around in just a hoodie and no coat. Glad to see you in Pdx! Hope you can make it to the Veg Fest (Pdx has a pretty nice Veg.

Shhh! We like to call the rain Oregon liquid sunshine. It makes it optimistic & magical that way. So glad you are a Portlander now. Portland can only be better for it. The lovely thing about Spring are the farmer's markets are all going to be opening up here soon. Luckily, your unicorn will come in handy at the market. They are fantastic hagglers. They are also very good for picking out mushrooms. Take care! If you tell everyone about the unicorns, they’ll all want to come here & get one. Shhh!

I grew up in Portland, but migrated south to CA as soon as I was old enough - I guess that I need more vitamin D than most. But I still have webbed feet and I head North when my unicorn gets thirsty. A tip: This won't happen for awhile, but when you crave sunshine, hop in the car and drive *east.* Over the mountains - maybe Bend or the hot springs. You could also get on a plane and head for San Diego, but that will cost you considerably more $$$. Soooo.... I hope that you realize that once you settle in, you'll have to visit San Francisco. I know of a vegan dive in Chinatown that serves *real* Chinese food, vegan style. TG for Buddhists. BTW, thx for the cookbooks - I have all three, and my veg teenager is now eating something besides side dishes and junk food (except when I make cupcakes). Welcome to the West coast!

It didn't last two days around here, blissfully consumed with fresh berries and toasted with Earth Balance. DEE. LISH. USS. Totally get the whole ‘cooking for the pleasure of cooking’ thing.
