One little, Two little, Three little vegans...

Four little, Five little, Six little vegans...

Who knew there were so many vegans in Dallas, Texas?!

Starting this blog has been a blessing, because it's enabled three other Dallas vegans to find me. Since I'd previously never met another vegan in Dallas, I knew we would *have to* get together! So one cool Friday night, I drove to Veggie Garden to finally meet some people like me :o). There were 7 of us in all, as one of the girls brought two vegan friends an another brought her vegetarian husband (for once, the non-vegan was in the minority!). We had tons of fun, sharing stories about our vegetarianism and about life in general (we were all around the same age, give or take a few years). Oh yeah, and we ate a lot too ;o).

Below is my plate of food-- Chick'n and mixed Veg in Tangy Sauce (I also had a side of bok choy).




















And here we are in all our vegetarian glory!
















To everyone who came: Thanks for an awesome night!

Ooh how fun! It's so great how blogging allows people to network and meet so many great people.

Now I'm starting to wish I was from Dallas!

I would love to meet up with a bunch of vegans, but other than two close friends, I know no others that live here.

Hey, other Dallas vegans! Hi!

I'm newly vegan, and someone on the PPK boards sent me the link to your blog.

How awesome that you've met other Dallas vegans! I never thought there were any Houston vegans, but they are lurking out there as well. My little brother lives up in Dallas... the next time I visit him we should try to get together!
