My absolute favorite vegetarian cookbook (at the moment)

I am a sucker for really cool-looking cookbooks (you know, the ones with a to-die-for morsel on the cover). If they have really

this is heaven!

pretty pictures inside next to the recipes, I usually buy them. (Unfortunately, this also means I have several cookbooks — covered in dust — piled away on my kitchen shelves).

Anyway, I found a cookbook that truly, truly is my absolute favorite at the moment, and I wanted to share it with anyone else out there who loves vegetarian food, doesn’t have time to cook, and wants to eat healthy, low-fat stuff… oh wow, this cookbook is for you. IloveitIloveitIloveit!

This particular book doesn’t have pretty pictures inside, but the outside cover appealed to me (of course). I actually checked this book in during one of my shifts at the CPL, and before letting it go from book return pile-to lazer-beeper-thingy-to be put back on the shelf, I opened it up, looked out the yummy recipes and checked it out for myself.

(On a side note, having the ability to check something in to check it back out for yourself – if there isn’t a hold on it for someone else, of course – is one of the wonderful things about volunteering in the Circulation department).

I took the book home, tried out several of the recipes – ohmygoodnesslovedthem - and then bought my own copy. I have been cooking meals from it since.Therefore, if anyone is looking for something new and veggie-fabulous, I suggest giving this book a try. It is so good!

This Seems Familiar…!?

So you may have seen my other blog (with the same name!) on Blogger.com. I am trying out both Blogger.com and WordPress to see which one I like better. I have used WordPress for my LIS5313 class and have enjoyed it, but I also like the ease of use with Blogger.com. I do like that WordPress allows for pages, which is so nice because I’d like to be able to organize my postings into different pages/subjects rather than have them all run together (which is what I have going on through Blogger.com).

What I am doing is a little repetitive, but in doing so, I am able to see the differences through actually trying them out. Thus, while this seems quite repetitive, it is a good learning experience for me.

The Bandwagon

So I have hopped on to the bandwagon and have created my own blog. Yep, I am adding one more blog to the 50 million that are already out there. This blog will be more for my own documentation of adventures through graduate school at Florida State University. I am trying to earn an MLIS as I hope to become a librarian some day. (As for whether I want to work in an academic library or a public library — or perhaps do some sort of special library work — remains to be figured out. Hopefully my adventures through Library School and volunteering at the Corvallis Public Library will lead me to the direction of enlightenment.
