Vanessa has written an easy to read cookbook with clear directions in her newly released Blissful Life Community Cookbook. This book is suitable for the novice as well as the seasoned chef. The recipes are based on healthy choices and are tried and true as Vanessa bravely invited friends and neighbors to critique her creations as she hosted dinner parties at her Olympia home. Blissful Life Community Cookbook is in beautiful and vivid color illustrations and includes everything from making the perfect cup of tea to a sumptuous vegan (or alternatively chicken) entree.
