Vegan Drinks is a social event for those interested in making new friends and meeting like-minded people. We meet up on the last Friday of the month. You don't have to be a vegan to come and enjoy the fun (in fact we encourage you to bring your veg and non-veg friends!), but only vegan food and drinks are available for purchase. There is no cover charge but we encourage everyone to support our hosts by buying some food and/or drinks! This month, we’re warming up winter with a late-bloom Valentine twist at the vibrant Dosa Mahal on Roncesvalles! ❄️🌿✨ Sure, Valentine’s Day may be behind us — but love (and onions) come in many layers, and neither one follows a calendar. Welcome to Valent-Onion: a celebration of cozy connection, great conversation, and the kind of food that makes your heart flutter and your eyes water (in the best way). 🧅🥲💘 Come thaw out with us over comfort classics — from crispy dosas to bold, flavorful bites — and let a little spring onion energy peek through the winter window… a tiny edible reminder that brighter days are on the way. 🌱🥞 Immerse yourself in an exclusively vegan evening by our gracious hosts - engaging conversations, unwind in the welcoming atmosphere, and tantalize your taste buds - with Dosa Mahal's mouthwatering delights (https://dosamahal.com/). From scrumptious grub to refreshing drinks, gluten-free dosas and pakoras, there's something for everyone to enjoy. **💘 Valent-Onion Event** For this special winter edition, we’re keeping things warm, friendly, and deliciously vegan. Whether you’re single, coupled, complicated, or just here for the dosa — you’re invited. Expect: ✨ great company ✨ cozy winter vibes ✨ bold flavours ✨ and maybe a little onion romance **How does it work?** *This will be a dry event. Bring your stories, not your spirits 😊* Just show up, have fun, and meet new people! Name tags will be available so you won't have to remember a million names! Talk about your interests, your favourite recipes and restaurants, your dream job to save the animals, the environment, your ethics, or anything and everything! Come for the food. Stay for the connections. Leave with a full heart (and possibly a little onion breath) 🧅💛

**A new format: you choose who you're interested in meeting** This meetup is about getting to know new people and sharing the experience in a small group (4-6 people).

To apply you will need to create an account at [lytt.me](https://lytt.me/meetup/6ixpickle-social) \- it's free\. **The event: Social Pickleball at Toronto's Premier Club** 6ix Pickle is Toronto's first downtown 24/7 indoor pickleball arena. Pro-level courts with electronic scoreboards, instant replay, billiards, ping pong, and a full lounge. It's the kind of place where you come for pickleball and stay because the vibe is just right. Your group books a court, grabs paddles, and dives into doubles. The beauty of pickleball is it's easy to pick up but competitive enough to keep it interesting. Between matches, you're in the lounge analyzing instant replays, trash-talking gently, and realizing this crew just works together. The whole experience runs about 2.5 hours. **The group: LYTT platform** LYTT forms small groups for events and activities you pick. 1\.

Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together. Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions. If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming! Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event! Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event! **Discord**: We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event! https://discord.gg/Da9fZFxPfs **Event policy**: * We have 0 tolerance for harassment. * We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets. * The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do. * Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.

Join other experienced and aspiring agile coaches and professionals to: * develop and practice your coaching skills in a peer-to-peer environment * share current successes and challenges in your work environment and get support from each other * learn from each other, build better relationships and experiment with new ideas
