Hi! I’m Liz. I’m 38 years old, vegan, and live in Stoke-on-Trent, England. Stoke is no Portland, San Francisco or Brighton, I can tell you. So I do a lot of cooking and a lot of travelling. I’m not a very creative cook, so I cook mostly from books or websites. I also test recipes for various cookbook writers, which is great fun. I’m the Vegan Society contact for Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme, so please do get in touch if you have any questions!

I got mine from the low carb store here http://www.lowcarbmegastore.com/wheat_gluten_powder_details.html
Thanks for commenting!
Hi Liz, I found your blog via Veggie Chat and I have to say it’s very impressive – I think I could spend hours looking at the photos! I was wondering if it would be ok to link to your blog from my website? It would be from the ‘what do vegans eat?’ page (http://www.cookingforvegans.co.uk/whatdoveganseat.html) – the aim is to demonstrate to non-vegans what a wide variety of foods we eat (i.e. that we don’t just live on apples and twigs like they think) and your blog is a really good example of that!
Of course you can! The more links the better! I’m glad you like it (and your website is a fab idea too!)
wow, I’ve found 2 English vegan bloggers in one day! I’m also a cookbook user, I have a bit of an obsession with them and collect as many as I can afford! I’ve just moved from Liverpool where I lived about 2 miles from Everton’s ground to Cleveland, big change of scene but I am pleased to report that it isn’t an area lacking in vegan products (just places to eat out, but Liverpool was pretty bad for that anyway!
Looking forward to reading more!
I love your blog! Your cupboards and bookshelves must be the same as mine!!
Do you ever go back to Liverpool?
Hi Liz! A very thorough and delightful site you’ve got here! I can add some of my experiences with South American food – although I’m mostly vegetarian, I manage to get by over the pond.
Hi Liz
It’s a beautiful site, which I could enjoy even more if I were vegan. But expertly put together. Just like yourself.

What an effort, and what fun! I’ve slowly begun a cookbook, and look forward to the day when it becomes a reality, though I truly don’t mind how long it takes. I’m a Vegan and love Vegan food for more than the tastes and textures-it’s a path, a journey, a life well-lived, a tribute to the planet & its voiceless beings, and a trip to be in the kitchen creating.
I look forward to the point when I will invite folks to test some of the recipes via my blog.
Cheers.
Hi there,
I found your blog linked on another vegan blog. I’m sort of a new vegan (almost a year) and love cooking from cookbooks. I started with your recent cookbook reviews and read every single one. This is great because I have always wondered about these books. Now I know what to put my Christmas list.
Your 100 list was very helpful too because I did not know some of the name brand things listed were vegan. That will come in handy while shopping.
Now I am making my way through all the old posts and loving it. What a great way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon.
Thank you!
