Eating From the Ground Up

the vegetable book

by


On my computer, this book lives in a file called “the vegetable book,” but you’ll see it on the shelf as Eating From the Ground Up: Recipes for Simple, Perfect Vegetables. The book comes out on February 27 (!), so I wanted to share a few details about that here.
Between now and then, Rosie and I are heading off on her 13 trip. I feel like I just got back from Sadie’s 13 trip but it was actually almost 2 years ago, and Rosie has chosen a very different kind of trip. We head to Tulum tomorrow, so get ready for palm trees on the instagram. (As if you need more of those, I know! But I promise I’ll make them good.)
The book is of course available for preorder, and YES it helps to preorder, which you can do here or here or here. If you’d like a signed (even personalized!) copy sent off to you, get in touch with my friends at One Mercantile. I’ll sign a book for you and they’ll send it off. Or if you’d like a signed card to stick into a book you’ve purchased elsewhere, just let me know and I’ll pop it in the mail. And speaking of One Mercantile:

If you’re close by, please come! It’s shaping up to be a great party, and I’d love to see you there.
 
I’m excited to share this book with you, friends. I hope it will be well used in your kitchens. And SO MANY OF YOU helped me with this one, and I hope all you amazing testers know how present you are on the pages.
Off to the beach- see you in a week! I’ll be the one shamelessly self promoting with a sunburn. xo

  1. Alana–
    Congratulations on your book. Vaya con Dios!
    I’ll be in Santa Fe in the fall, sending Counter Culture love. Until then, we are working on our own projects here in St. Louis and look forward to getting your new love offering.
    Best wishes!

  5. Félicitations Alana ! Your book will be a gift to myself for working really really hard this month. I would have loved to preorder but to be honest I could hardly remember to eat after work lately. I hope you have a fabulous trip! And I’m soo looking forward to having a relaxed cup of tea with your book in hand! Cheers to you and as Janet said “RADISH, RADISH, RAADISH!”

  6. So delighted with this latest book. (I have both of the others, too).
    I want to share each and every page with our CSA shareholders at the Medway Community Farm. I wish I could gift everyone of them with a copy…such enlightenment and inspiration.
    Brava and yum
