Vegan Bake Sale

It's Worldwide Vegan Bake Sale April 23-May 1. AND we all know that vegan bake goods are extremely tasty, and we shouldn't keep them to ourselves. http://www.veganbakesale.org/veganbakesale/vbs-what.html

We will be tabling for Animal Acres and Tsunami Animal Rescue from 10am to 2ish pm. we may stay longer if we feel like it.  Please bring your baked good to the Meetup or at Gavin's place by 9am, [masked].

There will be shifts two hours long starting every hour to make sure we have people there the whole time Please sign up for a shift! Gavin will be there most of the day but he needs help! If you want to stay longer that is fine the more the merrier, this just represents having people there.

Erin will be making flyers to hand out with info on the non-profits and veganism.

10-Noon Liz

11-1pm... Jackie

12-2pm... ?

    If people seem interested, lets start planning now so we can find a venue and decide on a charity to donate the proceeds to well ahead of time.

    hmm. What is happening that week? I this something that we could do outside on the sidewalk? Perhaps we could look into a charity that benefits kids.

    Perhaps we could do that if its warm enough to be outside that long. I hope that by the end of April, it will be. Perhaps downtown somewhere? I was hoping for a charity that benefits animals, since I feel like that fits our goals a bit more. (not that I don't care about children)

    I'm going to schedule a planning meetup for this event to cover what charity that we want to support as well as event details.

    So I just looked at the date and realized that I am teaching a class until 12:30. I will be happy to bake and print off flyers, but I may not be able to table sit. Once I figure out my child care, I'll be able to say more definitely

    I can table whenever you need me. I am not sure what I'm making yet, but I am leaning toward something savory as well as something sweet.

    I will table from 11-1. I think I am just going to make some cookies. Are we still planning on just displaying them ready to eat- not wrapped?

    Not sure if this was already covered but the Health Departments states that bake sales cannot contain health hazardous items such as custards, meringue, (soy in our case) etc. Anything that needs to be refrigerated. I'm sure this won't be an issue but just an FYI.

    I'm planning a sandwich-style cookie, but then I started thinking about my giant cowgirl cookies that are huge and delicious, so now I'm on the fence. I think it's going to be cowgirl cookies.

    I'm so sorry to be a loser butt head, but Violet has an eye infection and all plans for today went out the window. I will still have fliers and I did get our venue (and my friend is posting it on The Great Outdoor Clothing Store facebook page (add them). Anyway, I still have to prep for the classes I'm teaching tomorrow, so I won't have a chance to cook tonight.

    The total from the bake sale was 89.75! Not too shabby in my opinion. Plus there is TONS of food left. I am making a sugar rush after party for tomorrow.

    Awesome...yeah that is pretty darn good. We should do another over the summer or something...maybe at an outdoor festival of some sort? Anyways, the after party sounds good.
