Favorites from Amelia’s Kitchen

I’ve discovered that the 1/3 symbol is not appearing correctly in at least some Kindle apps (those for i-devices and the Kindle app). I am editing the book to replace the symbol with plain numbers & a slash. The changes will likely go live sometime on Monday or Tuesday. I will post here and make a tweet when they do.

If you are using the cookbook on an iPad, computer, or other non-eInk Kindle device, if you see a plain square where there should be a unit of measure, each of those should be “1/3”, with the exception of the recipe for Basic Sweet Scones, in which the measure should be “2/3 cup milk or half & half.”

The weather is getting milder, and even with changing the clocks this past weekend, the sun is rising earlier and shining brighter. I always feel invigorated in March and April after the long, cold, damp, and very short winter days.

The little cookbook I have put on Amazon is called Favorites from Amelia’s Kitchen. Perhaps not terribly imaginative, but accurate. 🙂 There are over 35 recipes, mostly vegetarian, some with meat alternatives, and some that are vegan or vegan-adaptable.
