Win a Copy of My Sweet Vegan for Valentine’s Day!

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

Blogoversary CupcakeHannah is offering up two copies to readers in honor of Valentine’s Day and her blogoversary at Bittersweet: “3 years …And still going strong! It’s hard to believe that BitterSweet has been around for so long, and how far this baby of mine has gone. But really, it’s not the blog that I want to celebrate on this joyous blogoversary- It’s the people that made it possible. All of the encouragement, inspiration, and camaraderie I’ve found through this humble creative outlet is a true testament to the fact that there really are a whole lot of thoughtful and compassionate people in this world. Even if you’ve never commented before, the fact that you’re reading this right now makes a difference. Whether you’ve been following my ramblings from the very beginning or you just tuned in last week, thank you for reading. As a special little thank you gift, I thought it would only be fitting to give away two copies of My Sweet Vegan! You have until one week from now to enter.  As the winner will be announced on February 14th, Valentine’s Day, it only seemed fitting to award two people on this day for pairs.

If you want to win my book, then just leave me a comment (no double-commenting, please) and tell me: What’s your favorite part of BitterSweet? What makes you want to come back for more? The recipes, stories, pictures, crafts, or something else? Or a combination? Yes, I’m nosy and I just want to know, but I also want to know how I can continue to make the blog better, and provide more material that the majority of readers want to see. Sound like a good deal? Just tell me what you think!”

My Sweet Vegan Author Plans Sweet Finale for This Year’s Boston Vegetarian Food Festival

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

From Hannah: “While some people may go crazy for cupcakes, I can’t help but be drawn to layer cakes instead. A marvel of both architecture and artistry, they allow for so much creativity; even amateur attempts are often more impressive than a handful of sloppily frosted cupcakes. I’ve written about my love of these colossal confections before, but now, you can see me demonstrate my favorite ways of assembling, icing, and serving these desserts. That’s right, coming up on November 1st in Boston, I’ll be demonstrating how to decorate layer cakes at this year’s VegFest. I’ll be there to sign books and perhaps sell some felt sweets all day, and then if you can stand to listen to me babble for 50 minutes while I smear some frosting on a cake, you get to eat a slice of it, too! Sound like a good deal? Good, I’ll see you there!”

Copies of My Sweet Vegan will be available for sale and signing after Hannah’s talk, and at her table in the exhibitor room, where she will also be offering dessert samples throughout the day.
