Remember how I promised that I would release the recipes which had been tested so far as a zine, as soon as I moved into my house and life calmed down a little bit?

Well, that time is now! The theme of the zine is Potlucks, which anyone who knows me can tell you is a theme near and dear to my heart. There will be about 50 recipes, divided in categories like Brunch, Pizza Party, Valentine’s Day Dinner Party, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Cookie Swap, to name a few. I will include a few pages about how to throw a successful potluck, as well has how to be an ideal potluck attendee. Of course, this zine isn’t just for those who attend (or aspire to attend) potlucks regularly. All of the recipes taste equally delicious eaten alone or with your family in the comfort of your own home.

I will be fervently working on compiling the zine in September and October so that it can be released in early November and into your hot hands in time for those Thanksgiving recipes, because I know that’s the time of year where everyone (especially new vegans) gets most anxious about cooking for others. I’ll fill you in on the details as I have them. Yay! I’m so happy to be excited about this project again.
