October 3rd, 2009 = Fakin' Fest! A potluck style celebration of vegan bacon and bacon flavored delights! Awards for Favorite Dish, Most Creative Fakin' Dish, and best Pop Culture Pig costume! There's talk of a tempeh bacon speed eating contest!
Donations will go to Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary, which I visited last year.
Maeve and I decided to put this together on a whim after hearing about Baconfest, ewww - Come join the vegan fun! Tempeh Bacon! Coconut Bacon! Seitan! Tofu! Eggplant!!!
The somewhat official site is here: Fakin' Fest 2009
The Facebook Event is here.
Tempeh Bacon is the best, Am I Right?
October 16, 2009 = The Next Apron Activist Dinner, hosted by Isa Chandra Moskowitz. I've dined and volunteered at these in past, and they're always fantabulous. And for a cause! This time, it's for Monkeys.
Check out the menu and more information about the Chimp Sanctuary Northwest Dinner here.

Hello! - look at how much fun Katie Jayne & I had!
Speaking of fancy dinners, later this month, I'll also be going to an exclusively vegan, multi-course, family style dinner at the newly vegan-friendly, esteemed Belly Timber in SE Portland. I'll report back, for sure! My first meal there was lovely.

Okay. I think you should have to pay my moving expenses when I move to Portland because it is basically all your fault! It sounds like the most amazing city, ever! An entire festival devoted to vegan bacon!?!?! SERIOUSLY? Portland is calling my name...
Psssst....I bought my ticket.
Steff - We're at the same table! : )
Voracious - Too Cute!
