Vegan Books!


The Date: Thursday, January 20
The Delivery: A manuscript of Sweet Vegan by Emily Mainquist, Vegan's Daily Companion by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, and The Bond by Wayne Pacelle
Staff Pick: Vegan's Daily Companion

The DL: After two weeks of cheese, muffins, macaroons, queso, and mozzarella sticks, we here at VNHQ really needed a breather. And what better way to get one's mind off delicious vegan food than with delicious brain food? We chose Vegan's Daily Companion not only because we love Colleen Patrick-Goudreau (and her Joy of Vegan Baking), but also because the book's focus on compassionate living from every angle will be a perfect read for the new year. Plus there's a super cute cow on the cover. Hmm. All of a sudden we're craving something sweet. Where are those Candle Cafe muffins?

Vegan Nacho Cheese and Baked Goods


The Date
: Tuesday, January 18
The Delivery: Nacho Mom's fire roasted nacho cheese and assorted muffins and tarts from Candle Cafe
Staff Pick: The muffins and tarts from Candle Cafe

The DL: As if a three-day weekend (and subsequent four-day work week) weren't good enough, today we were visited by the lovely, wonderful, talented (we could go on...) duo of Bart Potenza and Joy Pierson, owners of Candle 79 and Candle Cafe! With all the delicious tarts and five (yes, five) different kinds of mini-muffins including cranberry orange and sweet carrot, it is safe to say that our bellies and our hearts felt the vegan love. Some serious jogs around the VNHQ are in order to work off these goodiesmake sure to visit VegVote and let us know about your go-to winter workout!
