This is the book I wish I had when I first went vegan. Navigating relationships with omnivores was really tricky at first. I'm married now (to a man who enjoys steak and ice cream) and I have to admit I made a few mistakes when we first moved in together (like trying to convert him).Half of this book contains advice on anything you'd want to know about dating when one person is a vegan and the other can't live without cheese and bacon. Ayinde and Zoe go over first dates, how to tell the other person about your vegan lifestyle, sex, meeting the families, and even handling break ups. Both authors narrate their own stories of past relationships, telling us all the things that worked and the ones that didn't. (Can I just say I do not like Ayinde's taste in women?) It's a lot of fun to read, and even though I'm happily married, I still was able to take away some advice for myself, like how to deal with the families at the holidays.The other half is all delicious recipes that Ayinde Howell has created for everyone to enjoy. They are all vegan and all very, very delicious. My husband frequently asks me to make the "lobster" rolls and cajun tofu and dirty rice. Aiyinde's pancake recipe is now a staple in my house for Sunday morning breakfast. And I have yet to try a dessert that hasn't been absolutely amazing. If you are looking for healthy vegan food, this is not your cookbook. Lots of sugar and oil is used. If you are looking for lots and lots of flavor, you've found your winner. I also appreciate BTW that while this book does have some vegan staples like pancakes and chocolate covered strawberries, it also has some recipes that I don't often see, if ever, in other vegan cookbooks, such as the lobster rolls and jambalaya. (We seriously need a New Orleans vegan cookbook BTW.
