Overview

Crows Taste Best on Toast is a journey of self reflection exploring the relationships between mother and child, father and daughter, husband and wife, friend and neighbour. It explores the elements of life and how they interplay with the unseen, internal and external forces. Life is a mere illusion of self-control on the outside with chaos and anarchy on the inside. It is Vandall's deep appreciation and deprecation for life that keeps her writing. Whether it's her husband, children, nature or God calling her, she answers it the only way she can: through poetry. Vandall likes to inject humor into her poetry so she can laugh at her demons and turn them back into angels.
