Your picture is so great - I can almost smell the garlic!<BR/><BR/>I have a friend who wrote a cookbook for her family's diet which is just like yours (with the exception of soy) - The Nurture Diet. If you google it, you'll find it at the top. I have it & cook from it occassionally - I made her cornbread last night - all of her food that I have tried has been delicious! You can substitute rice milk for the soy milk the recipes that contain it, and you'll be back on the soy-free track as well!Rebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08681219110948898838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162774.post-32538434998643283852007-10-24T16:13:00.000-07:002007-10-24T16:13:00.000-07:00Dear Lady V: At age 41, I sure wish I could say th...Dear Lady V: At age 41, I sure wish I could say that I find myself where you seek to be with food. Indeed last night even, I rhetorically asked my mom whether women would ever be defined by themselves or others outside of their relationship to food and its effects. So stupid, but so paralyzing and absorbing. At age 17 I weighed 128 at 5ft 9in and thought I was obese!! Madness. I truly think it is the final frontier for me.<BR/><BR/>I ended up on your blog because after 5 months I realized one can click on one's favorite whatevers and be shown others who also listen to, read etc. or are interested in the same thing, and I had just re-picked up "Written on the Body" after however many years. Weird or synchronous? I remember when my peers and I were on the cutting edge of DOS. No longer - these little computer things embarrassingly escape me on a regular basis.<BR/><BR/>So I ended up reading your vest blog, and was hooting with laughter - it was great! I even read it out aloud to a friend and she got tickled as well. You go! A real triumph in so many ways.<BR/><BR/>So I hope you don't mind a complete stranger stumbling onto your blog site and then having the nerve to write you about 2 of your posts. Regards.
