Wandering and exploring has always been important to me. When this picture was taken I had two kids, but I was also starting to pursue these adventures. I was loving my career, developing my portfolio. Getting the call to do the Nashville job came out of the blue, and my decision to accept it really felt as if I was stepping out of my comfort zone, immersing myself in a new culture. Photography gave me a shortcut to forming a relationship with these unfamiliar people. Years ago, before anyone had woken up to the idea of environmental and health and animal welfare issues, Linda was blazing the trail with vegetarianism, telling people about it and promoting it. The trip to Nashville felt like stepping into a different world. Thirty five is an interesting age, it’s neither young nor old, and at this stage of my life I was learning so much about myself. I was a late bloomer, and remember feeling as if my confidence was really starting to build. I loved to be invited into new places; to step into the unknown. So when I was invited to a party at a mansion after the awards I lapped it up! It was incredibly exciting, I was busy observing all the guests when someone opened a little door and all this gun smoke came billowing out. They had a two-lane shooting range off their kitchen! It blew my mind. At My Table: Vegetarian Feasts for Family and Friends. Chatto & Windus, 2014. ISBN 978-0-70118-937-2. [14] [13]

From the book: At My Table

What’s it about? At My Table isMary's second vegetarian cookbook, inspired by her memories of enjoying food with friends and family. The book contains a selection of mouth-watering vegetarian menus to celebrate social occasionsfrom Sunday lunch to afternoon tea, barbecues to children's birthday parties. Here is a colourful book that sets out to provide a range of "home cooking" recipes for vegetarians as well as, perhaps providing a bit of an introduction to meat-free eating for those who still have rather outdated views towards vegetarianism.

At home, she would cook for the family and these recipes have been now brought up to date for a modern audience, so they’re all now plant-based and fabulous. She shared her compassion for animals with her family, creating home-cooked vegetarian meals everyone could enjoy.There are moments in our lives, and throughout the year, when we come together with our friends and family – and food plays a huge part in turning these moments into something special. Traditionally, many of these occasions call for meat – whether it’s roast beef for Sunday Lunch, or burgers at a BBQ – but Mary wants to show us that vegetarian cooking can be just as celebratory and special, and can adapt to any of our demands. She has created an inspiring and approachable selection of food for occasions that range from the festive feasts to the most intimate meal for two, all built around complete menu plans. Each menu has at least four recipes, and is designed to help us plan satisfying and delicious meat-free meals. Her Bonfire Party menu includes One Pot Chilli and Toffee Caramel Apple Wedges; her Middle-Eastern Feast includes Falafels and Nutty Baklava; and Kids Tea has Alphabet Soup and Mac ‘n’ Cheese. In the book, there are family photographs and stories from those days, and of course lots of great, beautiful tasting healthy recipes. Good book for: Vegetarians, or people wanting to eat less meat, who arelooking to be inspired by delicious,celebratory vegetariandishes that make any occasion feel special. Beyond her shooting style, I also inherited her temperament: Mum made people feel at ease and that’s how I approach things, too. I would never go in and impose myself. I’d much rather assess the situation and get to know the subject better, gauge what will make them feel comfortable and then challenge it.
