Celebrating The Joy of Vegan Baking

This past Sunday, over 110 people gathered to celebrate the publication of my book, The Joy of Vegan Baking: Compassionate Cooks' Traditional Treats and Sinful Sweets. Because of the generosity and baking prowess of many of my friends, we featured about 25 different desserts from the book - though I, in my distraction, forgot to unmask my own Chocolate Cheesecake and Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie! Nonetheless, everything was beautiful and delicious and absolutely devoured by everyone. At the end of the night, we had a small bowl of strawberries left (and my two pies that remained in the fridge!).

I gave a short presentation, after being introduced by my wonderful husband, and the whole night was just a love fest. I felt (and still feel) very loved and supported, and the feedback I've been receiving about the book has been wonderful. It's so much fun to hear from people who are baking from the book and loving the results. Please don't hesitate to put your own thoughts and suggestions here!
