Do you know what else has blood in it? Blood.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

There's also a vegan soul food place in Atlanta. How much do I love that it's an actual genre? THIS MUCH.

The DC one and the Atlanta one are the same group of restaurants, run by the African Hebrew Israelites. They also have one in Chicago, and maybe one other. The one in NY is separate, and it's run by some Jamaican Rastafarian people.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I had vegan key lime pie at Cafe Gratitude (WE WERE AWAKENING) on Saturday, and it was SO GOOD. Avocado-lime custard, coconut meringue, pecan-macadamia date crust. Much better than expected.

Is it Soul Vegetarian? I know the Atlanta one pretty well and I wouldn't call them soul food. (I'd call them damn good, don't get me wrong.)

Also, in addition to the four star vegetarian restaurant down the block from me (come to Chicago and I'll take you there! I look for any excuse) I also recently found another that is largely vegan and that I'm hoping to try out at some point. It's not near me, so unless there's someone from out of town I probably won't ever get there.

Yeah, it's Soul Vegetarian. I think the menus are different, though I've only been to the Atlanta one once, and I got a salad. The DC one is cafeteria style, with different dishes each day -- last time I was there, I got mac and cheese, sweet potatoes, greens, and some kind of tofu skin dish (not sure what it was -- the sauce had coconut milk and black pepper and I'm not sure what else.)

Huh. That sounds more soul-foody than the Atlanta one. But soul food or not everything I had there was good so I'm not surprised. That sounds nom.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm sorry, Kristin. I hope it's not too bad a tear.
