Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!

Before I was writing and speaking about food, I was a music critic who dreamed of being the next greast Jazz writer.

As the years went on and I could no longer go to gigs ‘til all hours, I started arriving at various venues early and reviewing the dinner and drink menus as well asn the music and the rest is journalistic history!

As I still love Jazz, howeve,r I am thrilled to inform everyone that award-winning Jazz vocalist, cook, and television host Laura Theodore (a.k.a., “The Jazzy Vegetarian”) is not only getting ready to launch the ninth season of her eponymous show on PBS, but is also releasing her latest cookbook.

And it’s a toe-tapper!

Easy Vegan Home Cookingfeatures scores of healthy recipesthat are sure to score with people of all dietary persuations. From bountiful breakfasts, light lunches, and satisfying suppers, to a swoon-worthy set of delightful desserts, Easy Vegan Home Cooking also offers requires eight ingredients or fewer, the book is a perfect introduction for the many new chefs who emerged during the pandemic and also for anyone who wants to eat better without giving up taste.

It’s like having Duke Ellington write for Taylor Swift!
