Hello from New Orleans!
Vegan beignets at Seed in New Orleans.
I’m having so much fun at the NOLA Veggie Fest! I did a demo yesterday morning and I’ll do another later today (3:15 p.m.).
I’ve been hanging out with my friend Kat, creator of Kat Mendenhall vegan cowboy boots, and her husband Myles.
I’m sure wishing my mom was with me
for Mother’s Day (wishing a special day to all of you who mother!).
Before I get to the news, I have a couple of quick announcements:
- Vegan Pressure Cooking, among other titles for Kindle, is only .99¢ on May 12 as part of a Vegan Event (sign up so you don’t miss the sale!)
- The May 11 Real World Vegan Meal Plans recipe and meal ideas line-up is below.
