Guest guest Posted January 30, 2003 Report Share Posted January 30, 2003 Hi All, First, a bit of facetious FYI, in case you aren't familiar with the CCVs: The Contra Costa Vegetarians have been gathering for monthly potlucks for almost 12 years. We welcome folks from all over the Bay Area to join us. We also welcome people in all bands of the veggie spectrum, from future veg to never-looking-back vegans. We don't require blood tests at the door to determine if you've eaten meat recently, nor will we chastise you if you bring a bag of chips. If it's chips vs. someone not attending, we'll take the chips, and some of us will even eat them! Seriously, the food is always great (especially the desserts!), but our main purpose is social. Some of us have been told we laugh too much, but we can be serious if we absolutely have to. Just don't make us do it too often please. Our potlucks are the third Saturday of every month, but we are contemplating branching out into other types of events as well. The potlucks are vegan, since all types of veggie people can eat that way. We never specify what type of dish people should bring because we almost always have a good mix of delicious dishes without that. Kids have always been welcome at our gatherings, though we do not currently have many attending (hopefully that will change--please, start a trend). The potlucks are at various members' houses or in local parks if the weather is nice. I do the mailing list and each notice includes details and directions, as well as a mention if any pets live in a hosting house, in case people have allergies. If you would like to be on our mailing list or have any questions, please let me know. And now to the important stuff, the next potluck: CONTRA COSTA VEGETARIANS' VEGAN POTLUCK! (Vegan = no animal products of any kind; ie, no meat, fish, eggs, dairy, honey, etc.) SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH, 2002 6:00 P.M.: GATHER; 6:30 P.M.: EAT in ALAMO, at the foot of Mt. Diablo E-mail me for specific address and directions NOTE FOR ALLERGY SUFFERERS: one large but extemely gentle dog lives at this abode. PLEASE BRING: –one dish (per attendee) to feed 6-8 people --an autographed copy of your recipe to place by your dish for others to read/copy/inquire about --your own reusable plate, cup, silverware, napkin (and don't forget a serving spoon) Thanks, Dianne Mail Plus - Powerful.
