It was wonderful to see my VegNews friends again and meet some new folks as well.  After lunch, Rey Ortega of Sun Flour Baking Company stopped by with Dan Piraro, a fellow vegan and artist whom I have wanted to meet for some time.  I got a photo with Dan and a bunch of cookies from Rey, so all in all, a pretty fabulous time at VegNews!

By the way, have you seen their new website?  It looks great!  Thanks again, Friends.

I definitely have more to blog about from the weekend, so stay tuned!
