Denver VegFest Round Up

 

Not to shabby a photo for an iphone, eh?    

I got back from Denver late Saturday night and jumped right back into my grueling work week, but I have to give a quick shout out and thank you to everyone in Denver.  I met loads of awesome people, and sold a nice bit of Halo8 DVDs.   

Dan Hanley did an amazing job putting together an all Vegan gathering of AR people, loads of Food vendors and some sweet non-food merch.    Unfortunately i was flying solo so i didn’t get a chance to check out all the tables,  check out the Denver VegFest site for a list.    I was sitting right across from the Tofurkey table and scored a metal Tofukey Lunchbox.   How punk rock is that?  

I’ve got to give a big thanks to Amanda, Talitha, Veronica, and some dude trying to sell me an Alarm Clock to improve my che.  Amanda made sure i did’t spring a leak, and Talitha brought me some sweet food from the Leaf Restaurant booth.  

I finally met a hero of mine, Sarah Kramer . This shortie can cook and has an awesome new travel sized cookbook on the way, Vegan A Go-Go. Check this shit, she is the OG punk Rock Cheftist.  So just drop all your canadian hate people.   I’m pretty sure they have souls too. 

Formally met Josh Hooten from Herbivore Magazine    Super nice guy. Why do all these folks live so far west of the Mississippi? 

I’m just going to start telling everyone that Chicago is the new Pacific NorthWest.
