Shesfit Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Hi Dave, Yes, I am planning to attend probably on the Saturday. I am an hour's drive from Toronto (I live in Kitchener). I would love to meet up with you that day! Robert: Too bad you won't be there. I will definitely stop by the Vega booth. I am Vega-obsessed!!

robert Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Yeah, I really wanted to be there but I'll be speaking at another event during the same time. I'm sure it is going to be awesome! I think it is the best vegetarian festival in North America! Have fun and take photos. Tell the Vega people you're part of our website...mention my name and they might hook you up with some stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shesfit Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 HI Steve, I am going Saturday (have to work on Sunday) but will be attending the CHFA East show in the morning (at convention centre). I plan to be at the Veggie fest by 2 p.m so I don't miss Brendan's talk at 4 p.m. then hang out and mingle, eat, learn ... all good! If you also planning to go on the Saturday, I can give you my cell # and maybe we could meet up. Ciao, She Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steej Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Well, I won't be able to make it tomorrow as I have a funeral... I am going to be going on Sunday. I wish we had meet-ups in the GTA!!! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steej Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Alright, So the Funeral I was at finished early and I was able to get into T.O for around 4pm. I went with my friend Kala last minute and I was not able to get to a computer to tell anyone - sorry shesfit I would of liked to meet you. OK - I got to meet Pamela from the Forum here... She came and tapped on my shoulder and I was a little surprised - Pamela we will have to get together because we didn't get to chat for very long and I hated to rush off on you... I got a lot of attention with my VBB&F -T-shirt - Thanks Rob I had people coming up to me wanting to know where they can get a shirt and how they liked the design - other people were asking me information about recovery foods and general things to do with BB. I have to say last summer I would have felt better (wrecked shoulders) as I was very cut last summer!!! A couple weeks of stuffing myself with not so good for you food and I am bloated. (no stress though) Next Year - I want to run a VBB&F booth with or without you ROB I am dead serious... Well Rob I went and said Hello to Brendan for ya!!! He saw the shirt and knew I was coming to talk to him... He said he hopes to see you and we were talking about how he has been so busy with Vega. We talked about the effort you put in to the vegan community and long hours on the computer to keep everything going. Thanks Again ROB!!!!!! Here is a Pic of Brendan and I - Note I have a Good Beard going and shaggy hair!!!! http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u304/SJ8_photos/BrendanBrazierMe.jpg Cheers, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamela Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 How did I miss this thread?! Yeah I was so excited to see Steej in the VBBF shirt! I saw Brendan's talk too but didn't get a chance to chat with him after because he was swarmed. That's ok, he'll be in Ottawa this week and there'll be lots of time then.

robert Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Nice! I haven't seen Brendan in quite a few months. I still keep in touch with that crazy guy, but haven't seen him lately. Thanks for posting the pic and thanks for wearing the shirt! I really hope to attend that event in the future. Glad you got to meet Brendan Steej , he's an awesome guy.

Shesfit Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Hi Everyone! Wow! Looked what I missed! I'm glad, Steej and Pamela, that you were able to meet up at the veggie event. I was at the veg fest earlier in the day then spent most of my time at CHFA show. I had a chance to meet Brendan at the Vega booth there. I'll post the photo of him with the Vega teams later. I told him how much I loved the Vega products and he gave me some samples of Smoothie mix and Hemp oil. Rob: I told him that you say 'Hi!". Is it just me or does Brendan seem a little shy? Maybe my over-enthusiastic personality made him a bit leery of me. lol! (the Vega Stalker!!) Anyway, it was a day filled with SO many health-related products. I t would have be nice to spend an extra day there. Oh well, next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamela Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Brendan's not really an extrovert. Yeah it was a great event. I hope maybe next year to have some sort of formalized meet up to make it even more worth the trip (5 hours for me). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Yeah, Brendan is a little quiet, but he's an awesome guy. He can be pretty talkative and entertaining in the right setting for sure. Sounds like a great time. It's a busy time in Canada for the heath food industry! Lots of shows and events going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
