Thanks for coming to the Veggie Safari BBQ! It was great to see so many new and old faces. The party went so well I'm going to do this once a month for the rest of the summer! Next one will be July 11.

Sorry I didn't get a chance to talk to everyone as much as I'd have liked!

Special shout-outs go to:
- Mel for the safari theme, for her zebrafication of the yard & house, and her unshakable positive mental attitude
- Nora for her great support, cleanup, and getting the groceries so I could focus on cleaning up!
- Anjali & Hannah for their amazing marzipan Serengeti creation!
- Arvin & Denise, for getting the OG back together! Represent! (and for the food & deserts)
- Byung for his gangster posery and making us veggies look bad-ass
- Andrew for being the enforcer we needed, keeping the veggies inline with the nerf vulcan machine gun
- Devra for her attitude, charmingness, and tasty tangelos!
- Raam for the stimulating conversation, and the tasty vegetables
- Maasai for her wonderful company
- Susan for her smiley-ness (i barely got to speak to you, but it made me happy when i did)
- Karen for returning to us and digging my stand up arcade!
- Osita for being party mascot, and dressing up in the lion costume (she's really a white poodle underneath)
- Fernando the pinata for agreeing not to be hit
- Paco the marzipan lion for lending an air of credibility to the proceedings.
- and everyone I didn't have time to name...

I think I might have a few people's plates. If I've got yours, identify it and we'll figure out how to get it back to you.

Hope to see you at the next one.
