Vegan Soul Grows in Anacostia

By Bonnie S. Benwick
Every weekend in a leafy, friendly Anacostia neighborhood, Levita Mondie-Sapp's low-key revolution gets underway. The 37-year-old Maret School teacher makes sweet potatoes with a light orange glaze or spicy peanut vegetable stew or her semi-famous hibiscus tea, often with the help of her young daughters. The folks down the street, relatives and church members drop by to see what's in the oven or to watch as she prepares for a private cooking lesson or someone's housewarming buffet. Everybody gets a taste.

At one of the few attorney get-to-togethers I went with Dragonwife and enjoyed the couple hosting served a Orange-glazed sweet potatoes dish that absolutely sent me to heaven. Didn't get the recipe but will bookmark this one. And I'm going to try the Collard Green Won tons just because of the memories of my grandmother's cooking.

i do so love sweet potatoes. you don't need a load o' marshmallows to make them taste good either. they're beautiful all on their own. have you tried sweet potato fries?
