BIG NEWS! If you live near or in Vancouver, BC, Canada I would love if you could make it out to my first ever vegan potluck! We will be gathering at a lovely home in East Van with a big garden and dining area. Please bring whatever vegan dish you like (raw or cooked, sweet or savoury, crunchy or creamy, etc.), although I would ask that it's made with mostly whole foods (so I can try it!) and list the ingredients in case there are people with food sensitivities or certain preferences. Also feel free to bring vegan wine, beer, tea, kombucha, or whatever! The meet-up will be commencing in the evening around 6:15 pm and we can hang out as late as we please. We can make this event into whatever you want it to be. Vegan dance party? Hell yeah! Calm philosophical moral discussion? Alright! Just stuffing our faces with magical food? It's all good. I would love to meet you, so come on over if you can! This is a great opportunity for me to connect with all of you, but more importantly for all of us to connect with each other! Who doesn't want more vegan friends!?
Note: you do not have to be vegan or even vegetarian to come. As long as you have an open and accepting mind,
EVERYONE IS WELCOME! Having said that, this will be a no-hate zone. Discrimination of any kind will not be accepted. But that probably goes without saying because I know you're all pretty much the coolest homo sapiens ever.

ReplyDeleteOh man. I am SO jealous!! You should come to New York sometime. Pretty please.

ReplyDeleteI have been eating vegan for a month now... I wish I lived there and could come by!!
ReplyDeleteI wrote about my experience when I started on my blog, though, and plan and doing a follow up post (http://www.buildabalancedlife.com)
Have a great time!! You should post about what kinds of things people bring, would love to see.
I'm still trying to come up with a cunning plant to move Ireland through all the seas to right next to Canada's West Coast, but until then, have tons of fun and TAKE PICTURES! :-)
ReplyDeleteGuess all be sending you green love from Vegas...:()
ReplyDeleteHmmm I wonder if I can manage to run from Qc to BC.... hahah probably not, but i'll be there in spirit if not in body! Have a blast!

ReplyDeleteHey! That sounds amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI already thought of what id make and bring, and what is wear!! That sounds like so much fun! Everytime I hear about stuff like this it's ALWAYS in the USA. And the rare time it's in Canada, it's Toronto/Ontario area! So YAY FOR BC!! I'm in kelowna! My car won't be ready in time, so I can't make it :( BUT, if you know anyone coming from here to there, ill gladly catch a ride!!! :) Such an amazing idea! I'm so happy your doing this and representing B.C.!!!! Thank you! You ROCK!!! :) Make sure to take lots of pictures! Especially pictures of the food! And maybe a group photo? AWESOME!! :)
hey sammy i'm from quebec too
ReplyDeleteyou mean you can run like Terry Fox. At 40 km per day, it would be mentally and physically challenging!!!
But vegans have nothing to envy meat eaters, they are strong with the force like a Jedi Master!
@Anonymous - aw man well I hope you can make it to the next one! I just posted on my Facebook page to see if anyone is coming from Kelowna.
ReplyDeleteSo, I might try to come. My boyfriend and I are from Vancouver, but we are going to the Okanagan until Saturday evening... if we are back in time, we would both love to attend.

Heya Em, I can't make it this weekend but would love to attend the next event. Please say you'll be having more of these! I just made your raw zuc pasta with sundried tomatoes and it's so delicious! And super quick too! I love how the sauce is made so quickly in the blender! I bet leftovers will be delish! Shirley
ReplyDelete@Shirley - I will! :)
ReplyDelete@Michelle - yay hope to see you both there!
