Veg Food festival

By Friday, all I wanted to do this weekend was take it easy, put my feet up and relax. Well, that didn't quite happen considering I had a ticket to attend the NYC Vegetarian Food Festival, this year, it was 2 days! Remember what happened last year when I tried to attend? I wasn't going to let that happen to me again so when I saw a Living Social coupon for the 2 day festival WITH VIP entry, I got on it right away.
We got there early as to beat the crowds, at this age, I don't do crowds very well. And were able to sample and get in on some really great deals on some of my favorite vegan specialty foods.

I think my favorites from the festival were getting some marshmallow treats from Sweet & Sara's, although I did pick up a bag of Dandies that I have yet to try. It's a vegan marshmallow face off!
The lovely people at Peanut Butter & Co. had an awesome deal on their butters so of course, I indulged and also had a fan girl moment posing with their monkey mascot! 
Others included: Daiya, Coconut Bliss, Vegan Bodega, Tumeric, Herbivore ( I may have picked up their Vegan Pregnancy Survival guide, just for fun!).

Although I wasn't feeling up for it, I'm so glad I made it through and enjoyed the festival. I'll definitely be returning next year!
