Of course as you say, viruses can be unavoidable, and just remind him of all the non-healthy people he knows who seem to have *constant* colds for months on end. He's still way better off!<BR/><BR/>Can't wait to hear about the baking class- sorry it was disappointing. you should teach cooking classes- I would take one!<BR/><BR/>And how cool does a strawberry jalapeno muffin sound right now... mmmmm.bazuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07020880461667324114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33672952.post-28493129226664015572007-09-24T23:56:00.000-05:002007-09-24T23:56:00.000-05:00Being sick really sucks.

Sometimes it seems to me that this whole getting sick thing is just completely random. If someone should get sick often it really should be me. God knows how many times I've been around people with colds and been lazy with washing my hands.<BR/><BR/>All the food looks so lovely, as always.

Yum.<BR/><BR/>That cake looks like it could cure anything, so perfect. Hopefully it did the trick.<BR/><BR/>There's a restaurant in Boston we go to called the Elephant Walk that makes a crazy good chilled avocado soup. It's called avocado-citrus soup and it's got lime and orange juices, garlic, and button mushrooms. I saw that the recipe for this soup was published in Gourmet Magazine in June 2007, so perhaps you can find it. It's totally worth making--I'm going to go in search of it too. Given that it's Gourmet they probably published the non-vegan recipe, but they offer a vegan version at the restaurant all the time.Emiliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02636815051862281991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33672952.post-3596941917314739162007-09-24T12:20:00.000-05:002007-09-24T12:20:00.000-05:00Everything looks great, especially those jalapeno ...Everything looks great, especially those jalapeno muffins :o).ChocolateCoveredVeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03535445175195773771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33672952.post-13349848786165946892007-09-24T11:06:00.000-05:002007-09-24T11:06:00.000-05:00Hope Chase gets better soon.Never thought of straw...Hope Chase gets better soon.<BR/><BR/>Never thought of strawberries with jalapeno...must be fusion cooking like chocolate and chili which is popular now.<BR/><BR/>Must try the orange tahini sauce on broccoli as I might like it that way.

I hope he feels better soon. The immune system is such a complicated thing... it can be influenced by so many factors - including stress, emotions, viruses, the lymphatic system and so on. And, being sick is nice sometimes because you can have an opportunity to relax and be quiet with yourself.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally the bundt cakes look amazing!

John Robbins went on to explain that you could be the epitomy of health and still get cancer or some other awful disease/illness. He said that veganism is like wearing a seatbelt and driving the speed limit. Sure you can drive down the freeway at 150 mph, not wearing your seatbelt, crash head-on into a tree and survive. But, why take that risk? If you wear your seatbelt and drive the speed limit, of course there's still the chance that you could die when you crash into that tree, but there's an even better chance that you'll walk away with your life.<BR/><BR/>I hope Chase feels better soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33672952.post-91340485110867158462007-09-23T11:49:00.000-05:002007-09-23T11:49:00.000-05:00I hope Chase feels 100% better soon.and these lemo...I hope Chase feels 100% better soon.<BR/>and these lemon bundt cakes are absolutely gorgeous. well, so's everything really. ;)Celinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15483153865484260588noreply@blogger.com
