Only botanical products, all natural and hypoallergenic. Please let me know of you or any of your fans are interested. i can send samples for youto try, navigate you thru the website, or meet with you if we are i the same city.

My dairy phobic honey loves them. I was sorry I missed buying a copy of the self-published book, but am so happy for you that you've found a publisher. I wish you great success. I'll look forward to the new edition in March so I may review it on my blog The Vegetarian Review http://vegreview.blogspot.com/.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15469725719981514995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-70249910135546402732007-12-15T02:23:00.000-08:002007-12-15T02:23:00.000-08:00I was really hoping to get your book for Christmas...I was really hoping to get your book for Christmas, but since it's sold out I'll have to get it for my birthday in April instead (I'm chronically broke, can't afford to buy much else but food so everything else I need to get for my Christmas/birthday).<BR/><BR/>I too think your cover is a lot better! It looks more stylish and professional. I'm also a self-publishee myself, but hoping to get the English version of my medical textbook properly published.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17982894362182079013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-36631765873654096022007-12-10T15:27:00.000-08:002007-12-10T15:27:00.000-08:00Your blog is making me hungry.I have actually been...Your blog is making me hungry.<BR/>I have actually been looking into vegan food recently because of some close friends.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, thanks for the all the helpful information and links.

I think they chose that picture because it looks very familiar, kid-friendly, and nonthreatening. I'm guessing they want to send the message that this book is approachable, even for busy moms and those in the mainstream. But if you still want to write, it's the address in New York. <BR/><BR/>>>I'm curious how this is making you feel?<BR/><BR/>Well, I think the new cover is cute and might appeal to a broad, more mainstream audience. But I also like my original cover design, which I think gave the audience a bigger hint at the wide variety of interesting, out-of-the-ordinary recipes inside.<BR/><BR/>I guess I'm just happy that the book will be available again soon, and more widely distributed than it was before, at bookstores and on the internet.

I don't think the cover of your new book is that bad- in fact I think its cute.<BR/><BR/>The little sandwich cut outs, bananas, carrots, (whats that dip? could it be .. VEGAN?) and yummy cookies! Completely wholesome. It appears both to vegan, and non-vegan families. It's the perfect lunch box. Of course, going inside the book, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find all sorts of treats! <BR/><BR/>Comparing both book covers- they are basically the same. I'm sorry, I don't get it?<BR/><BR/>Anyhoo, I just had to say something. I'm amazed at all of this backlash it's ridiculous. There is absolutely nothing wrong with your new book cover. o_0 I'm curious how this is making you feel?i'll close my eyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03130362319448336360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-41218517297663642222007-12-08T12:18:00.000-08:002007-12-08T12:18:00.000-08:00I am excited that I have a chance to get the book....I am excited that I have a chance to get the book. I wish they had used ANY of your photos. In fact, I plan to write and tell them so. Might be too late this time around, but I honestly almost cried when I saw the cover. I guess I'm just spoiled from reading your blog, but I think everyone should get the same wonderful treatment. If they put all your photos in the book, I'll be somewhat mollified. <BR/><BR/>I don't know if I should write to DeCapo Press at Eleven Cambridge Center, Cambridge MA 02142 or to Perseus Book Group at 387 Park Avenue South, 12th Floor, NY NY 10016. Do you know which one I should use? <BR/><BR/>I want this book to wildly successful for your sake and for all of us, and so I'm going to give them my opinion before they go to print.Summerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335696475012337174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-48204152178262198722007-12-08T01:33:00.000-08:002007-12-08T01:33:00.000-08:00Couldn't find a contact email address on the site,...Couldn't find a contact email address on the site, but would love to hear your thoughts on the trials/tribulations of self-publishing.

That particular meal looks a lot smaller and less appetizing than the ones on the original cover, and kind of contributes to that stereotype that vegans don't really have much to eat.
