A couple of recommendations for you - ...Hi Rachel,<br /><br />A couple of recommendations for you - on the food front have you heard of Yotam Ottolenghi? Two fantastic cookbooks - Ottolenghi, and Plenty (vegetarian). On the literary front, In Other Rooms, Other Wonders by Daniyal Mueenuddin. Blows Jhumpa Lahiri clear out of the water. Enjoy, Naheed.naheedbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15062831362191510988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11625994.post-63248411054426534372010-04-24T22:46:18.461-04:002010-04-24T22:46:18.461-04:00Hey Erica and Mara! Mara, the Bittman cookbook is ...Hey Erica and Mara! Mara, the Bittman cookbook is more accessible, even though it's gigantic. I would buy Bittman. I like Jaffrey but the recipes are hit or miss and I can't quite figure out how to build a meal around them yet. Several weeks ago I made this Spanish swiss chard & bean soup and Sofia threw up the entire night. Actually, she had a stomach virus but it sort of turned me off to the cookbook momentarily... though I did like the chickpea pizza she says is all over the South of France...Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12627330189814604776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11625994.post-18769536518453726942010-04-22T08:06:15.093-04:002010-04-22T08:06:15.093-04:00love the new blog entry - we are still eating meat...love the new blog entry - we are still eating meat/chicken (as you are experiencing, hard to take the meat away from the Moroccan) -- but unloading a bunch of hard-earned cash for organic. Still looking for delicious vegetarian recipes...the tortilla pizza looks good...will finally get around to ordering Jafrey's book one of these days. Do you recommend that over the other one you mentioned?Mara and Karimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03302793974650222582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11625994.post-5100489474766009782010-04-22T04:25:44.697-04:002010-04-22T04:25:44.697-04:00Yay Rachel!

I showed that movie in Tom Leatherman's Nutritional Anth class this semester and at the end of class several students said they were changing their eating habits immediately. It is disturbing! Also, I need some new cookbooks!Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11554498539390028841noreply@blogger.com
