Passionate for plants..especially edible ones. Vegetable and herbs of all kinds find there way into my kitchen. The produce section, farmers market, is a world of color, shape, aroma and texture. Explore along with me as I experiment, ponder, taste and savor the foods of a vegetable lifestyle. I love having a herb and vegetable garden... and encourage anyone with a bit of land or a pot to try. Of course, these days you can't think of food or farming without considering being green or eco.

John Robbins is a pioneer in the awakening of America to Sustainable Food for the planet and our bodies. 
Years before it became trendy or mainstream John led the way to what is now major topic of conversation, news and 
politics.


Personally, for me it was Frances Moore Lappe and her book, "Diet for a Small Planet", that planted the seed for what has now grown into the current awareness of all the issues of food and it's relationship to the global impact. Frances will be one of the people that John will be interviewing.



Me, Frances Moore Lappe and Alanna (my daughter)
at The Open Center (couple of years back)- She was honored that night 
and I was honored to sit with her and her family.
I even brought my original copy of 
Diet for a Small Planet and asked her to
sign it....lovely night.
