Wintery Mix
Guys. My winter has been, as the Republican Party might say, “off the hook.” I’ve been doing a lot of traveling; LA, Chicago, NYC. Right now I am chilling at my mom’s on the Upper East Side, eating as many bagels as I can get my hands on. It’s funny the things you miss when you’re away from home. I did not rush to my favorite restaurant, Candle 79, but god help the poor shmuck who stood between me and my everything bagel. This weekend we set sail for that vegan cruise thingy so let’s just see if 7 days of sunshine and vegan cupcakes can stop my mom and me from fighting.
So I’m just gonna go through my FlickR and throw some stuff at you.
This is Pizza from the Pizza Research Insitute in Eugene OR. Girlfriend, it was good. Homemade smoky vegan cheese sauce, lots of veggies and…peaches!

This is Blythe breezing bye, hurrying up to serve delicious vegan ice cream to the masses at Lula’s in NYC.

Terry eating said ice cream. Hell yes in the dead of winter!

What’s this? You don’t say? The final cover for Vegan Brunch? It couldn’t be!

I’m developing recipes for Natural Health magazine, this one is Grilled Tamarind Eggplant. It’s going to be for the July issue, so watch for it.

Mexican Hot Chocolate Snickerdoodles, for the forthcoming cookie book. These are ok, but only if you like ridiculously delicious things.

And finally, the pile of cats that I can not wait to get home to.

I’ll be at Vegan Drinks tonight if anyone would like to give me a bon voyage wedgie or anything. See you in a few weeks!

You ever had pizza at Dove Vive. I had that when visiting Portland one time, and it was awesome. Here’s a review: http://stumptownvegans.com/2008/02/04/dove-vive/

Your skin looks amazing! Must be the West Coast thing.

Have fun on the cruise thingy. And I don’t think 7 days of sunshine would do it for my Mom and me, so good luck with that. Can’t wait for the cookbook!

We ate at the Pizza Research institute one time on our way from Sacramento to Portland. The special of the day was Pear-Potato-Pesto pizza. Sounds strange, but it was delicious!
February 27th, 2009 at 1:23 pm
Cookie book? A cookie book??
Release dates for that and the brunch book, please! Please?
February 28th, 2009 at 3:08 pm

And yes, ass omelets. But I will be buying it just so I can make ass omelets on Sunday mornings.

“Come on, who else reads that cover as “Ass Omelets”?”-walrus
I did! Who came up with the idea of putting that on the cover??? I think that’s reason #103 to buy the brunch book.

Hi! My husband and I just discovered your Veganomicon book. I’ve only looked through it once so far and I loved what I saw. I can’t wait to try some of the recipes and I really enjoyed your humor. Thank you for writing it! Aloha, Sarah

I like ridiculously delicious things. That is a fact!
March 8th, 2009 at 11:42 am
If I could stand rain, I would move to Portland. Wow, that pizza looks really good.
I’m excited about the upcoming cookie book! Do tell!

Because I am a really mature, sophisticated person, I, too, erupted in giggles at the phrase “asparagus omelets” RIGHT ON THE COVER OF YOUR NEW BOOK, ISA! For shame: now they’ll have to sell it in a plain brown wrapper!
March 15th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
cookie book? cookiecookiecookiecookiebook?? Oh. I. Can’t. Wait.
Hooray for Oregon. Your cats are ridiculously cute.
