Vegans of Dreamwidth

I visited family (who are non-vegan) over St Pat's. They made corned beef & cabbage, and boiled some cabbage, potatoes and carrots separately for me. I was surprised how good the plain boiled cabbage tasted and how nice and soft it got. I wouldn't have thought of cooking something special for St Pat's. I don't celebrate Easter but did order vegan chocolates last year.
