A Very Vegan Valentine's Party: A Celebration of Love and Chocolate



What a lovely evening. It was a brisk night. A dry, cold breeze filled the night air, which encouraged us to stay indoors for most of the night. The sky was clear, and the stars were bright. Rick and Therese Burgess graciously offered their beautiful home for the party, which was lit by magical and warm candlelight. They actually made the soy-based candles themselves. Only about 20 people came to the party, but it certainly was a fun night. It's always a pleasure being in the company of such warmhearted, amazing people. We'd like to thank everyone for attending and for all of your donations. Your donations help fund future events. It is important that we take some time to socialize and relax among like-minded friends. That is what we aim to provide by planning events for vegans and those interested in the vegan lifestyle.

Everyone voted for their favorite in each category, and here are the results:

Sexiest Outfit: Therese
Wickedest Outfit: Trevor
Most Decadent Dish: Connie's Chili
Most Decadent Dessert: Susannah's Chocolate Haystacks
Biggest Chocoholic: Myriam
Sexiest Out-of Context Quote: Rose - "Saucy Weenies"

Each winner received some very sexy prizes.

Thank you to everyone who brought a vegan dish. Everything was absolutely fantastic. Here are some photos of only a few of the many delicious dishes that everyone brought to the party:















Thank you again, and we look forward to seeing you at our next event! :O)
