Vegetarian Epicure

[Guest guest]

I browsed through this book today and love it. I wont make all the

recipes, after all I am a working single mom who's main goal most

days is to get something on the table fast that the kid will eat.

But what is really good about the book is her explanations of so

many things that probably seem common place to most long term

vegetarians. She talks a lot about different cheeses (this isnt a

vegan book) different grains, different soups (I love soup) and how

to make a perfect crepe. I like this book. I especially like the

fact I paid a dollar for it and it is in very good shape. So the

days I want to make something a 'little nicer' I know what book to

grab.

 

On the topic of bad days. I took my kid to a class at our local

zoo. While she was in class I went to the 'restaurant' and I use

the term loosely. Anyway I grabbed a spinach/cheese wrap. They had

several different kinds, some of them were turkey/cheese, etc. But

this was in a different compartment and the wraps around it were

gralic/herb, tomato/lettuce, anyway you get the idea. The place

has 'low lighting' and I'm not wearing my glasses. I sit down to

eat and am thinking about everything going on and am eating my wrap

and I get thinking something about this wrap is not right. I open

it up and it has bacon inside. I was not a happy girl. Why call it

a spinach/cheese wrap and then put bacon inside? Shouldn't it be

called a spinach/cheese/bacon wrap? I am complaining to the main

administration tomorrow. It has been just over a month since I have

eaten red meat or pork and so I guess my tastebuds arent finally

tuned yet. I am still accustomed to eating bacon so I didnt react

to it immeadiately. But I am not happy with the zoo cafeteria

people.
