Guest guest Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 The Vegetarian Epicure was and still is a favorite of mine. This isn't book #2 is it? Is she laying down with leaves around her head? If so there is something very funny on page 9 bottom paragraph. Go read that and have a good laugh! That's not why I love this cookbook, or is it?

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I had to get my book and I do have that one (I have vegetarian inclinations for so many years - just did not think I could do it but have surprised myself - closing in on 6 months!) purchased in 1982. She is standing though and her clothing is made of salad greens. Do you mean the footnote about ornaments? Or do we have different books?

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 That is another edition by this author. She has several cookbooks. Believe me you'd know what Donna is talking about if you had it. LOL The drawing on the front is of a woman laying down by her garden of lettuce and carrots with leaves in her hair. BTW Kandi, I love the recipe on page 132 for Savory Baked Garbanzo Beans. I however just use canned garbanzo/chickpeas instead of dried ones and make this on the stove top with no baking. It is quick to make this way. It is a favorite when I take it to potlucks. Judy - Valerie Sunday, October 14, 2007 7:53 AM Re: oh happy day!

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I have all 3 of Anna Thomas's books (and love the first 2 but don't particularly care for the last - and hate the faint printing), but don't see anything particularly funny about the bottom of page 9 in book 2. What am I missing? (Her recipes are awesome. I haven't made anything from the third, but made lots from the first two, and everything was awesome except the stinko cheesecake in book 2.)

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 It is in the first book not the second book. Look for your book that has the drawing of the lady, laying beside her garden of carrots anda lettuce. Judy - allanimalsareawesome Sunday, October 14, 2007 9:53 AM Re: Re: oh happy day!

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I would like to know more about this funny picture and I would like to have that Savory stovetop baked Garbonzo Beans. I am not so fortunate as to have that cookbook. Katie wwjd <jtwigg wrote: That is another edition by this author. She has several cookbooks.
