How to learn how to cook fancy vegan meals
It made me 
"It takes time."
How I did it: I just kept trying different recipes from cookbooks and websites. I went through tons of recipes from books and magazines and learned a lot about food and cooking in general.
I had to become willing to experiment. I stopped ignoring recipes with ingredients or methods that were unfamiliar or seemed intimidating. Not everything turned out absolutely fantastic every single time, but now I can cook pretty much anything, with or without a recipe. I love cooking for other people and get compliments on my food all the time.
Lessons & tips: Sometimes ethnic food is easier to start with, especially when you're cooking vegan.
Resources: vegan cookbooks, vegweb.com, eating well magazine (not vegetarian, but still pretty educational)
