Vegan Potluck/Open Mic Success

As I'm sure many of you know, we had a vegan potluck/open mic at our house on Saturday, July 25th. We had been planning this for a long time and we really didn't know what to expect.

It turned out to be a huge success with 40+ people showing up. There was array of people from our respective work places to friends to couch surfers.

Unlike some potlucks, mostly everyone brought something and we had an abundant amount of food and everything was sooo tasty. We had everything from vegan mac and cheese to gluten free cookies to chick pea patties.

The open mic was fun with performances that made you laugh and maybe feel slightly weirded out.

It was so much fun that we may start having these once a month. We have a house meeting on Sunday to discuss it! We will keep everyone updated with upcoming events.

The only bad thing about the night was that none of us in the house took any pictures, if anyone reading this has some pictures of the night send them on our way.

There's something about dryer sheets...


mutton tallow, originally uploaded by thegreenvinecoop.

that led me to assume they would be vegetarian. My friend Brooke pointed out that they are usually (but not always) made with tallow.  My other friend Google--with whom I sadly visit much more often--proved her right. I've used them in the past but, having never been very fashionable or wrinkle-conscious, its never been a priority. I've been trying to mostly line dry my clothes of late anyway...
