Consider this the official sweetgrass burning post - all negativity vanishes and the space is purified. Still working through your book..and looking at the Live Lime tarts for St-Patrick's Day!

Jae, love the book, the blog, your videos, and your positive energy. You're so inspiring...keep up the good work!

Jae, I love the cookbook and your blog! The Cowgirl Cookies are the BEST!!!

Jae- first I had no idea you were so adorable (even though I have your book) seeing you for real made me happy. I love your book, just today I went through it to make my shopping list and even as we speak my boyfriend is making me the Southern Bowl! I hope you make more books because I love how everything is so good AND healthy. I also love that you incorporate so many different types of nutritional thought in your book.

howdy from Kentucky! I've been reading your blog for years, and just popped over here to check out your videos- it's nice to see you in person! Keep up the good work- you're an inspiration...I've enjoyed your journey. And your accent is cute!

Jae, your cookbook is another one of the vegan must-haves that I'm so happy to have found. Amidst all the blah cookbooks I have poured over, you definitely raised my spirits when I found yours. Thank you for incorporating more than just recipes in you book. Thanks for realizing that not just veganism but any lifestyle has to be paired with healthy attitudes towards ones body, ones health, and ones mind. You're an awesome person with lots of yummy vegan-ness to share! Please keep it up :)

The videos are a nice reminder of how much fun it was to see you in person doing a demo in Boston. Before I became a vegan at age 50, I was clueless about it and thanks to you, I have learned so much, gotten healthier and have more energy than ever. These videos are inspiring me to get cooking....right now! Thanks, Jae. You are the best. We need you on the Food Channel.

Jae, you have helped me tremendously in learning and becoming more health-, earth, life-conscious. Mahalo for being so cool! And what a cutie your are... :)

Jae, you are so awesome! Get It Ripe has seriously changed my life! It is THE MOST used cookbook in my collection and it's the first one I pick up when I don't know what to make. On days when I just feel like microwaving some oatmeal or ordering a pizza, I open up Get It Ripe and soon find a recipe that's just what I want and of course quick and easy and fun to make! If a particular recipe doesn't match what I have in my fridge, I can substitute a little of this and a little of that and it still comes out delicious! Thank you soooo much!! :)

You rock, Jae Steel! Thanks for caring so much about people, their palettes, AND their health!
