I've started a flickr group for my recipe testers to post pictures. Please feel free to take a peek and see what's to come in the next book.
Book 2 Testing Group
I also finally added a flickr group for my first book, The Glad Cow Cookbook. Feel free to join the group and add your own pictures!

I've just put in an order for the second printing of the Glad Cow Cookbook! Thank you everyone for buying the first printing. Now tell your friends, so they'll buy the second round!
I'm steadily working on the second book. I'm in testing phase and have a lot of my internet vegans helping me out. The new book will have more recipes, nutritional information and pictures! I'm working up a proposal to shop around to publishers, wish me luck! This book has a lot of great recipes that I am very excited about. There will be gluten free recipes, lots of main dishes, heirloom recipes from my family that I've veganized and most importantly THE BEST CHEEZE SAUCE I have ever had! Get your tastbuds ready...
I have begun work on my second cookbook! I've been creating recipes fairly steadily since finishing my first book and am now working on typing, editing, and deciding what types of recipes I need to develop. I'm very excited! Please email me at
with any recipe requests you would like to see in my next book. So far I have had requests for more main dishes, as well a Minestrone Soup recipe. I can't wait to hear from you!

As of April 7, 2008, TasteBetter.com is going on hiatus. The site will stay online, and the Vegan Booze Directory will continue to be updated, but regular updates will cease for the time being while the publisher takes a break and works on developing some new perspectives on activism, both online and off.Thanks to everyone who had a part, however small, in nearly 7 years of online adventures here on The Better and VP before that. I've learned a lot and really enjoyed collaborating with you. If you want to stay in touch, the contact form still works, and if you subscribe to the newsletter you'll be in the loop for what I'm up to when I come back (but I'm looking forward to some time off, so if you're planning on waiting eagerly by your inbox, pack a great vegan lunch or two.)Thanks,Jason
In the latest installment of our vegan business and finance section The Colour of Money, we talk with Santamrit Violet & Simran Khalsa, who are sisters and co-proprietors of Vegan Divine, an online vegan gift basket shop.I really enjoyed doing this interview, particularly where they said "...it's in direct alignment with how we live, so it's not something that we felt was a burden to do, it's exciting for us to find these things for ourselves and then share these things with others." There are all kinds of great opportunities out there for people to match what they do for a living with how they live every day, and I got a great feeling talking with these two. Check it out and see how it all comes down.
In his latest An Animal Friendly Life column, Eric Prescott continues taking us along the path towards, as he puts it, "a sustainable, morally consistent foundation for achieving animal liberation." This month, Eric examines the relationships between animals and humans in today's society, and how it pertains to advocacy and outreach. If you've enjoyed his past columns, this one will fit right in. If you've been wary of his writing for some reason, this is a good chance to give it another try: check it out here.
