The ever-awesome VegNews has nominated me for their 2008 VegNews Veggie Awards! Thanks, guys! Unlike the Bloggy Awards, the Veggie Awards are decided by readers.  That means you!

If you like VeganYumYum, go ahead and vote for me! If you complete at least 50% of the survey (read: you don’t have to take the whole thing to vote for me), you can be eligible for some awesome prizes, the grand prize being a NYC veggie getaway–including airfare!

So vote for me and possibly win cool prizes! Yay voting!

In other news, do you have Twitter? I do! If you’re wondering what I’m eating, or when I’m going to post my next update, or if you want to see sneak peeks of my upcoming posts, you should follow me on Twitter.com. If you don’t want to join up for Twitter, you can always see my current status by checking the right-hand column of my website.

I’m going to get back to playing with these awesome red currants I picked up at Whole Foods the other day.  I’m thinking rosemary, figs, and black peppercorns as my flavor palate.   I don’t know, the final dish could be gross, but they sure do look pretty together, don’t they?

PS – You can grab the large or original size of this photo over on flickr if you’re looking for a new desktop background.   : )

Here’s the clip for those who missed the show. Can you tell how nervous I was? Enjoy!
