“A couple of books. The new Philip Roth called The Humbling and I’m reading a book a friend of mine wrote her experiences with surrogacy called Standing in Two Places. Her name is Ashley Dyson. I’m reading another book called Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer.”

—-Sandra Bernhard, on her current reading list, during an interview with autostraddle.com.

Eating Animals made Natalie Portman go vegan. Sandra has expressed an interest in getting there. Will Foer‘s book be the push Sandra needs?

It’s been awhile since we brought you a recipe mimicking the diet lifestyle of the stars.

Sandra Bernhard recently enjoyed some delicious split pea soup she crafted in the kitchen.

“testing split pea soup not bad if i say so myself perfect for a rainy new york afternoon lunch at cookshop with cordula fab model friend”

Apparently, Sandra is a good chef.

“dinner was delicious if you enjoy baby food split pea soup mashed squash and kale odd but tasty.”

Here’s your chance to eat split pea soup like Sandra. We found a lovely recipe at vegweb.com.

—-Sandra Bernhard in a Tweet about her experience eating at Dirt Candy restaurant in NYC.

Sandra agrees with Starchefs.com, as Amanda Cohen, Dirt Candy’s owner and chef, has been named the first vegetarian chef in New York City to receive the Rising Star award, an prestigious acknowledgement among chefs and other foodies.

Cohen’s restaurant patrons can get down and dirty with menu selections like Jalapeno Hush Puppies and Portobello Mousse.

“if you are looking for a puppy or a great adult rescue head right out to port washington new york to the north shore animal league!”

—-comedian Sandra Bernhard, in a recent Tweet, doing her part to advocate animal adoption at shelters versus a kennel or department store.

North Shore Animal League is the world’s largest no-kill adoption and animal rescue shelter in the world.

The agency has placed over a million cats and dogs in loving homes since its inception in 1944.

It was also one of the first responders for pets during Hurricane Katrina, where it rescued 1,400 pets from the area.

Sandra Bernhard recently made a Tweet about the vegan breakfast sandwich she was eating.

“enjoying a light life vegan bacon tomato sandwich for breakfast love my alvarado street california style protein bread you can get it in ny”

Sandra has the bacon, tomato, but did she leave off the lettuce for a complete vegan B.L.T.?

Oh, well, maybe she’s just a B.T. girl instead.

We have to side with Sandra on the veggie bacon, though, regardless of the fixings she chooses. Lightlife not only makes faux bacon from soy protein, they also have a tempeh bacon variety.

Sandra Bernhard recently Tweeted about wanting to be vegan, but not being able to cross over to that side.

“i wish i could be a vegan but i just can’t function well on that diet believe me i get it and maybe one day but for now i do the best i can!”

Wonder what’s holding Sandra back?

Sure, veganism takes more thought and planning. It requires seeking more sources of plant protein. You may even have to pop a B Vitamin here and there. But ask any vegan who’s stuck with the lifestyle and they’ll tell you it’s totally worth it to adhere to their beliefs and/or to gain the health benefits of removing dairy and eggs from their diet.

Are you a wannabe vegan who has a few humps to get over? Is it the love of cheese? Cookies and cakes bringing you down? Are you just afraid of “slipping” up every now and then?

Chime in and let everyone know!

And send some encouragement to Sandra @SandraBernhard.
