Hi Tracy! Where in upstate NY are you? I live in Albany.. which I guess is central NY... but I'm from Westchester. Veg*n food around here certainly leaves a lot to be desired!

 

[veggiegirl71]

Oh thank you so much veggiejanie!! Yes that is me in my picture. Wow, you just made my day! It is nice to meet you!!

 

[veggiegirl71]

Rabid child, I live about 10 from Albany in Waterford. We should meet up sometime and go to the Honest weight food coop. I have always wanted to join. Not much in Albany for vegans. There was a restaurant called Shades of Green but they went out of business. Remember them? It was on Lark street?

Come out for a visit sometime, L.A. has tons of veggie restaurants. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/grin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="">

Thanks so much everyone! It is great to be here. I feel like Im all alone in a meat eaters world..haha Nice to talk with you all!!

Welcome! I'm in east-central Upstate NY also.<br><br><br><br>
Shades of Green is supposed to be re-opening someplace, but I haven't heard where or when. I've been eating more of my own cooking (retch!!!) since they closed...<br><br><br><br>
Oh, okay- I don't think my cooking is <i>that</i> bad, but it's not as good as SoG's.

 

[vamosrafael]

Hi! I'm about 3 hours from Albany, I'm near Ithaca.

 

[veggiegirl71]

Ok cool! Lets all meet. We should organize a potluck or something....

That would rock. The NE U.S. is underrepresented insofar as VB gatherings goes.<br><br><br><br>
The co-op is awesome for veg food. I'm a member and a weekly worker so I get 26% off of my stuff which is SERIOUSLY helpful! I'm a poor grad student <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/book2.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=":book:"> . I just bought a bunch of stuff there today cause we're having company this w/e.<br><br><br><br><div class="quote-container"><span>Quote:</span>

There are some restaurants that serve some veggie things in Albany. The veg*n food from my kitchen tends to be quite good too! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/hungry.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=":hungry:">

alright honest weight co-op!<br><br>
not a member because I fear the time commitment, but I'd like to<br><br>
and I'm nervous about new people and places<br><br>
heh<br><br><br><br>

I won't be back in Albany until the last week and the second to the last week of Aug. I can do a VB gathering/meetup then.

 

[veggiegirl71]

Rabid child lets organize something. Im going to the coop and hopefully we can get a potlick together.<br><br>
electro phoenix if you are close to Albany, I will work with you at the coop so we can get the discount!!<br><br>
Rainbow_clouds....yes whenever you are available is fine with me!! We can all get together and meet and make some good vegan food. Let me know what day is good. Im usually ok with times. Have a great day!
