A Mother's Day Post

So I had this massive Tasty Bite review post planned for tonight, but time got away from me as I was preparing and packing for New Orleans Veggie Fest. I'll be making the road trip tomorrow and doing two cooking demos and a booksigning at the annual fest. If you're close to NOLA, come see me! And come see Victoria Moran (Main Street Vegan), Ellen Jaffe Jones (Eat Vegan on $4 a Day), Will Travel for Vegan Food blogger Kristin LaJeunesse.

Since Mother's Day is coming up, and I will be out of town and unable to celebrate with my own mama, I'll leave y'all with this fine little note. It's something I gave my mama on Mother's Day way back in 1991 when I was just 10 years old. My mom recently discovered this in a pile of old keepsakes. The note had multiple sections. One section featured this awful chubby-cheeked picture of me.


And then there was this little choppy train-of-thought letter. ADD much? It's really astounding that I grew up to be a writer. Who would have guessed?


In case you're wondering, "Tiny" was Me-Maw's cat. And Foxmoor and Maurice's were clothing stores in the mall.

Happy Mother's Day! I'll be back with a full Veggie Fest recap on Monday night. And I promise to post that Tasty Bite review next week.
