Yabbit's Annual Virtual VegWeb BASH!!
Last year I threw a virtual VegWeb party. I know some of you have been able to get together and actually meet, greet and feed together (and boy am I jealous!) but for those of us who can't (and anyone else, of course!)
IT'S THE YABBIT'S SECOND ANNUAL VIRTUAL VEGwEB BASH!!
There will be room for everyone (guess we'd better hold it in a covered Olympic stadium or somewhere!) and there will be separate tables for vegan and ovo/lacto or both dishes. But anyone is free to taste from everything. There will probably be magic floating around so if only one person brings a delicious dish, there will be plenty to go around!
There will be plenty of plugs for crockpots, and a BBQ facility somewhere to handle beanburgers etc. But most of the food should be brought cold. As this is an imaginary feast, money's no object in terms of ingredients! (If you're gonna dream, don't dream small!) Calories?? Who needs 'em! That's the great thing about virtual food!!
This year I think I'll make Willowflower's excellent Tofu with Veggies and Couscous, and the Sweet Potato Chilli. Actually I just made a HUGE pot of that so I have plenty to share. And boy oh boy is it gooood.
Oh, and bring your dogs/cats. That old magic will keep harmony among the different species!
So, whatcha gonna bring, gang?
Yeah, we need some tunes! Where are all of our lovely VW musicians, huh? There's nothing better than live music, and this definitely calls for some everybody-bring-their-instrument improvised jamming.
I once had a jam with the bf on electric guitar, his friend on the didgeridoo, and myself playing a large plastic pitcher as a hand drum.
we could certainly use somma that kind of music around here!
oh, and I wanna dress up, too! I could wear that pirate get-up I threw together a few years ago (see gallery for pic), it includes one of my favorite long flowy skirts...perfect for jubilant dancing!
By all means, dress up if you want! Chicken, or bunny, since you're hopping? :)
Ah well, I don't have a bunny costume handy, so I'll go with the chik'n. :D Tho I have a nice big black cloak for a witch costume if anyone wants to borrow it..?
Gotta get some music going, troops. Heliamphora, some of that zinfandel here, please. (What would happen if I dunked my brownie in zinfandel?? I'se gonna find out raht quick!)
*turns up the Led Zeppelin**hopes that's popular* :)
Humm... here's some zinfy for you yabbit... and some for me! I has not tried zis wyne before. :P
I am bringing crepes with a variety of fillings (that sounds amazing right now) for dessert and dinner. I don't have any animals but...
<--- dances like a maniac. :D
Hey guys, I just realised I can let Sweetheart come to this virtual bash...he'll be safe and he won't fly away. He said, "It's time for Just a Minute!" yesterday. (I knew all that listening to BBC Radio 4 would pay off...)
<grabs Cody's paws and dances like Hespedal>
Whooo Hooot! Turn up that BBC bayby! I'm gonna dance until my sides split...oooh <gets distracted by bells> this will go straight to my thighs! Speaking of thighs, where ARE AshleyKimball's desserts? Nothing like some crepes in Rome - thanks for the venue Capture!
When my samosas are gone, I'm gonna run to the kitchen to whip up some Raspberry Cheesecake: http://vegweb.com/index.php?topic=6712.0 and the york-a-likes that a little bird told me are oh-so-good!
hhmmmm
What would I bring to a huge veg*n bash?
Of course I would be bringing a lovely BCG SoySeiTurkey and a SoySeitHam. As well as the Veganomicon's Herb Scalloped potatoes and some lovely garlic roasted brussel sprouts, asperagus, mushrooms, cauliflower and broccoli.
Dessert would definitely be Truffles. Some rich dark coated in chocolate ganache and some in a light dusting of powdered sugar. With little bowls of other shell items for dunking; cocoa powder, coconut, chopped nuts and sprinkles.
Beside that would be a vegan chocolate fountain with fruit like strawberries, bananas and cherries as well as pretzels and cookies to dip into the lush dark waterfall.
Also, there needs to be a huge bottle of Champagne for Mimosa's. I need something to dunk my strawberries (and truffles) into!
I just got my Eat, Drink & Be Vegan cookbook!! I'll bring lemony cashew-basil pesto on pasta and 5-star ice cream cookie sandwiches. The pictures look yummy! I'll bring Blue.

Dude! I'm teaching my students how to play dulcimers...I'll bring my dulcimer and you should bring your friend's didgeridoo. That would be sweet!
Also, I will bring tofu scramble, tempeh bacon, herbed biscuits with NY gravy, and vegan grits, and COFFEE for the next morning. Yes. Coffee. We will definitely need that after the vegan wine. :D
