A book, raw snacks, and more!

The Date: Monday, November 8

The Delivery: Quick and Easy Vegan Celebrations by Alicia C. Simpson, Citra Solv cleaner, Chai Tea from Tipu's, Lula's raw chocolate bars, Zenergy Super Food Power Snacks, and a tote bag and t-shirt from Ex-Boyfriend.

Staff Pick: The darling vegetarian dinosaur tote bag and owl t-shirt from Ex-Boyfriend.

The DL: Whew! With such an epic shipment today, it was nearly impossible to pick from the promising vegan cookbook, several treats from fellow SF Green Festival exhibitors, and the great goods from Ex-Boyfriend. At the end of a day, who can resist an adorable T and tote bag from the vegan-owned company Ex-Boyfriend that donate 5 percent of its revenue to animal rescues, while the owner volunteers at his local SPCA. We love this adorable dino-tote. Yes, we just declared that it will from now on be touted as the dinotote. We know you want one.

It's a Tie!

The Date: Monday, August 2
The Delivery: A trio of books
Staff Pick: A Tie—Quick and Easy Vegan Celebrations by Alicia C. Simpson and Vegan Baking Classics by Kelly Rudnicki

The DL: It was just too hard to decide between these two cookbooks. They both seem to contain delicious recipes, and we want to try them all! You can buy Rudnicki's book now, but you'll have to wait until October for Simpson's book.
