Hello everyone!
Thanks for everyone who came to Boston Vegan Drinks #7! We have TWO events coming up in December.

Time:6:00pm - 10:00pm

Second--Boston Vegan Drinks is hosting a special event on Thursday, December 10. Susanne is graciously hosting a vegan cookie exchange holiday party! The idea is everyone brings enough cookies for the amount of people attending the party. Everyone will leave with an array of delicious vegan treats (unless you eat them all before you leave). Please try to RSVP if you are planning on coming so we all know how many cookies to bring! We encourage you to bake, but store bought cookies are okay if you anticipate total baking failure. A few extra special exceptions will be made for those bringing the booze!

Date: Thursday, December 10, 2009
Time: 6:30pm - 9:30pm
Location: Susanne and Nick's House, Cambridge, MA (E-mail me for address).
