Cookbooking

Tonight is the night we "spring forward" one hour. This is a BIG DEAL. Patio parties and having dusk last until 9pm is one of my favorite things, period, full stop.

Part of turning the corner into spring reminds me that yes, eating healthy really IS a good idea, and it's time to transition out of winter wine and pasta hibernation.

I've recently been inspired by a friend's food blog, Adrienneats. Not only are her recipes fresh and healthy, she has jaw-dropping fantastic photography. Seriously. You'll want to eat everything.

One of her top cookbook recommendations is Deborah Madison's "Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone". I got my copy today and while I've barely cracked the spine, it looks pretty awesome.

Most importantly, I realized I actually LIKE kale.
With brown rice vinegar.
And garbanzo beans.
Who knew!?
