Mollie Katzen, The Enchanted Broccoli Forest. Followup to The Moosewood Cookbook, which I'm keeping. Entertaining and tasty.
Anna Thomas, The Vegetarian Epicure. Probably also good, I haven't used it for a long while.
Marlis Weber, The Single Vegetarian. As a loner, I like the focus on small dishes, but it's a little too healthy for me.
Jean Hewitt, The New York Times Natural Foods Cookbook. Beats me. This is the only one with meat dishes.
Manju Shivraj Singh, The Spice Box. Vegetarian Indian cookbook.

I'm also giving away Theodor Holm Nelson's Literary Machines 90.1, the book about his hypothetical hypertext system Xanadu. Judging from Half.com and Amazon listings, this is probably a collector's item, but I can't find a listing for this particular edition, and I just don't have the patience. And anyway, I bought it used for $4.95. I'm making an attempt to sell my copy of his Computer Lib/Dream Machines, but if you make an impassioned plea for it you could probably have that too. Don't know if there actually is anyone in my reading public from this particular segment of geekdom.

I'm all set but when we have coffee, have me tell you my ted nelson/rushkoff story with special guest appearance by Omar whathisname who used to be on the geek tv and went to oprah and blackplanet. it was at a book party for david someone who wrote a book about nerd childhood in manhattan. and i really should remember his last name because after i met him at dibbell's tiny life book party we went on a date but it was a really un-memorable date. but the story of his book party is nerdlarious.

I was gonna comment on the smallness of the world but [livejournal.com profile] marm0t beat me to it. I'm thinking about going to a show (Four Tet) in SF tonight; would you be around for coffee and stuff transfer and ted nelson storytelling this afternoon or evening?
