I don't know if I've ever said it in my comments on your blog but I've often thought - when is she going to come out with a cookbook?? And I LOVE to bake so I truly can't wait to have a baking book full of delicious better for you treats!! As for the types of recipes I'd like to see - cookies! That would be my number one. And a healthy pie crust. I'm sure everything you come up with will be amazing and tempting though. And I didn't know you used to have a baking business!

And it's so true: the more sugar you eat, the more you crave. Thanks for your nice comments about the cookbook and salad! I guess I'm using sweet potato as a "sweet" substitute! Lisa, Thanks so much! It's really *sweet* of you to say so ;) destinys kitchen, Well, I guess your point about yo-yoing is actually true; much better than just going up, anyway. But it seems an awful lot of work just to end up in the same place! snooky doodle, Thanks so much for your comment, and for visiting my blog! Glad you like the photos and recipes--let me know what you think if you try something out! :) Ruby Red,

Good luck to you! I'd actually like to do the same. The more sugar I consume, the more I crave... So it is totally possibly to make cravings less persistent! The cookbook sounds like a good one. I know I would definitely be interested in recipes for blondies and cookies, for example, that are lower in fat and sugar. And that sweet potato and ginger salad looks fabulous!

As long as the publisher can comply, I plan to include all those things. And thanks so much for the support--both on the blog and with this new project. (No wonder Celine wants to marry you!) Vegan Noodle, Thanks so much! And thanks for that overwhelming response to the cookbook--wish you could decorate the cakes for me! :) Bee, Thanks so much! I do believe that healthy food makes a difference in the rest of one's life, too--am hoping others out there agree! Lisa, Thanks so much for your comment! I think sweet potatoes are one of my all-time favorite foods, not just vegetables. And I appreciate the good wishes! Lisa, It would be my absolute pleasure to set aside a copy for you! I'll add your name to the list. Yaelian, Thanks so much for your comment! And thanks for the vote of confidence--will do my best not to disappoint! L, Thanks for your comment! And no, I'd never toy with you (well, about THAT, anyway) ;) atxvegn, Wow--thanks so much! I will do my best to live up to expectations!! :) Cheryl, Thanks so much! It does seem funny to embark on this cleansing diet while I'm doing more baking. . . but so far, it seems to be doable. Good luck on your own challenge (and I'll definitely be posting some no fruit and no grain recipes, so stay tuned). :) Johanna,

I paid the fruit lady a Euro to pose with her. Costly, yes... but it's totally worth it, since I'll have the photo forever! (Plus, I like helping people who are trying to make an honest living.)
