when they made the recipe it looked nothing like the photo.
In breaking, other news, that's not what a McDonalds burger looks like.

Here's the blog revealing the photo thing [link] (This blogger has done the "BREAKING NEWS! SCANDAL!" thing before.)

But I think that most people expect that, in a cooking magazine, a photo shown next to a recipe will be styled to look better, but will at least be a photo of something made from that recipe.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
That seems like more of an issue than "not vegan". I'd be irked about that in an omnivore magazine.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Onerous tasks: Follow-up phone call re scheduling a reading for Allyson. Update my resume. Finish second pass-through of current ms for Plus One and return to other editors and author.
There's also taxes, but one piece of paperwork is still at home. Everything's done except for that; I just need to plug that one thing in and hit "send" at H&R Block. But since we owe money, I'm bloody well waiting until 11:59:59 PM tomorrow on that one.

I'm sure I've mentioned it here, but people know that fashion magazine covers are essentially contracted out and that whichever make-up company has that month's cover just matches their closest colors to the existing photo, right? At least, that's how it worked not that long ago.

Onerous tasks: Balance checkbook, make an appointment to donate blood, and whittle my inbox from 23 down to, let's say, 5. That would make me super happy.
Oh yeah, and work stuff: lots of proofreading.

JZ, I think you can wait until Monday, if you want to.
