I hardly ever go to Barnes and Noble. It is like a ZOO here at all of their locations in Queens....well all over NYC. Are they that popular everywhere? I don't know if people really love to read that much or they just want a place to enjoy the air conditioning in the humid summer heat. I would hope that they are really reading! Anyway....I went there yesterday and it was FUN!I browsed all of the education books and then went on to Non-Fiction and wrote down some titles that I want to check out from the Queens Library. Then I ended up in the cookbook section and browsed for a couple hours. The book above made me miss New Orleans....the Muffaletta sandwich on the front is scrumdiliumpcious!
Then I about DIED laughing in the aisle when I saw is book. My friend BEAK instantly came to my mind when I saw the title....BALLS! She and I are in love with Gulab Jamun, an Indian dessert, that we refer to as simply BALLS. You can read a previous post on the "balls" if you click HERE. I have also included this picture of Beak as proof that she loves to devour these tasty little guys.

Help me out on this one! I picked up this Vegan book because I thought that the girl in blue had cute hair. Then I was perplexed by the title....How it all Vegan!
Then I opened the book and read the chapter head and the first line of the first paragraph. "How we both Vegan" and "We vegan in the early....." Aren't they missing some connecting words there? Maybe an "are" or "became?" I don't know....maybe it is just me. Is there some humor that I am supposed to be getting? Does this confuse anyone else as to why they would publish it this way? Maybe they just need a little meat....ha!

Wow Sarah James....that is why I have you in my life! You are smart! :) I would have NEVER (well obviously) NEVER thought of that. I always pronounce it "ve-gun" and so the VE-GAN/Be-gan never crossed my mind. Hmmmmm!
Now that I am looking at the title of the book again...I feel kind of dumb. I get it now. Hmmm...I still think they need some meat.
