A few weeks ago our friends at SF Weekly asked us to be one of the sponsors for the 2010 SF Weekly Web Awards. The event was being held at 111 Minna and celebrating the best of the Bay Area’s web and social media scene. We were told there would be art, music, free food, a couple hundred people, and most importantly, an OPEN BAR.

SOLD!

After spending all day in our rental kitchen slaving away over a hot oven, we finally came to an agreement on which new flavors to make. We finished just in the nick of time, packed it up and rushed to get out to the city. When we arrived at the event, we unloaded, shook a few hands and headed straight for the bar to congratulate ourselves on all our hard work. Ice cold, FREE Asahi, what?!

The event started at 5pm and was scheduled to run until 9pm. By 6:30, all 400 samples of our Pina Colada, Irish Cream, Lemon and Mocha Almond rolls were GONE!

We mingled a bit, checked out the artwork, and hung around just long enough to congratulate our friends at Vegansaurus on winning ‘SF’s Best Blog Post’ before packing it up.

It was a long day, but well worth seeing our friends and meeting some very cool new people. Thanks to Holly and the rest of the SF Weekly crew for having us!

On another note, if you’re looking for something to do this Sunday, Issues in Oakland (where the East Bay Vegan Bakesale is held) is holding an in-store vegan cooking demonstration from 6-9pm. The Post Punk Extravaganza West Coast Tour will feature traveling vegan chef and author Joshua Ploeg doing a cooking show demonstration from his book In Search of the Lost Taste, a screening of the Plan-It X Records Documentary by Joe Biel, and an “edible secrets” mobile museum by Mia Partlow and Michael Hoerger.

Sadly, we can’t make this one since we’ll be snapping pictures of hot chicks for our storefront photo shoot.

HOLLERRRRRR!

You should go though.
