Vegan waffle parties are off the grid! It is time to get the word out to the world. This will happen only with your action and creativity–and your willingness to join us in having a great time.
We’re hosting Waffle Party 10 here in Pittsburgh on the afternoon/evening of Saturday, May 24, 2008. We think it would be ultra-ultra-cool if adventurous people in several other cities around the globe also threw vegan waffle parties on 5/24. This would promote more sustainable, healthier, compassionate eating in a fun way! Please comment on this post if you’re interested in hosting one, so we have an idea of how many others will be waffle-partying that day. Whether you’re hosting 50 people for a big evening party or five people for a small brunch, we’d love to know.
This also happens to fall right at the end of World Vegetarian Week!
I’ve set up a blogroll category for sites of those who are also planning to host waffle parties on 5/24, and may look into something like having info/pics from the parties posted afterwards–I don’t know if this latter piece will happen, but I’ll let you know if it looks like a possibility. (Privacy of guests is always a consideration for us.) If it’s not okay to contact you with any relevant updates using the email you submit with your comment, just let me know. I anticipate only a few, with most major ones being through site postings.

Hey, I’m interested! I think I’ll be able to throw a party on the smaller side, but it’ll be fun and vegantastic. Once I’m pretty sure I can also blog about it, at least.
I never really get “pride” parades… I know we are happy with what we want to do and want to share it, but i’m not so big on the “pride” part I guess.. hahaha.

Mandy,
That’s great! Definitely let me know, whether it’s three people or thirty people. I’ll be updating the blogroll in the near future so other people know to check it out. I look forward to hearing what recipe(s) you end up using, what the most creative toppings are, etc.

Count me in! I am usually living in Belgium but will be back in San Francisco for Vegan Waffle Party time. The waffle maker is ready to go as is my recipe. Since i just came across your website and decided this moment i will have the party, i must now start inviting people to come! Considering i’m known as a great baker, I expect i’ll have quite a few guests! I’ll keep you updated.
Thanks for the great idea.

That’s great! I look forward to hearing how it goes. If you often live in Belgium, I suspect you’ve learned quite a bit about waffles.

Hello,
This is aaron baxter from the House of Pain Vegan Wafflerie in Montreal. Their will definitely be some organizing around this brilliant crispy deliciousness. With nearly two months to prepare I bet its magnitude will snowball quickly.

Aaron,
I’m excited to hear this! So you actually run a vegan wafflerie. Very cool. I love the name–do you use hot pepper in your waffles? If you have a website or blog, please let me know so I can post it.

Definitely interested in a Waffle Party in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Will make it happen. A fantastic idea!! Am I missing a list of cities involved somewhere on this page?

Brianne,
I’m glad to hear we’ll have someone from the home of the International Festival of Buskers!
I’ll add you to the list of “Hosts of Multi-City Vegan Waffle Parties” links at the upper right. Perhaps I’ll add the cities (at least for those I know) in parentheses to make it easier to identify.
Thanks!
Dave
