More Soup! And a VCIYCJ Giveaway from Perseus Books

Ecch, sorry for the bad nighttime photograph! This is a bad photo of a batch of delicious curried carrot soup, a recipe I found in Joanna Vaught's Yellow Rose Recipes. The soup is very rich, so I added in lots of lemon to brighten it, and was happy. There's an optional cilantro garnish that I didn't use, and I am sure that would be a good taste-brightener as well. Anyway, if you have been considering purchasing YRR, now is the time to do so, because copies are dwindling fast. I hear there is an amazing green beans recipe in here, and I hear rave reviews about the sloppy Joannas and the mustard-crusted seitan at the PPK.
