Sidecar for Pigs Peace, in case you’re in Seattle and have not visited it, is a tiny 100% vegan grocery store in the University District. It is owned by Pigs Peace Sanctuary, which my mom and Eric and I visited for my birthday this year, and a portion of the proceeds from the store go straight to caring for the pigs at the sanctuary. Pigs Peace is a wonderful sanctuary where approximately 190 pigs have a safe and happy home. Judy, who runs Pigs Peace, is an amazing person and works SO hard to make a good life for the pigs with whom she shares the sanctuary. It really is a wonderful spot.
This coming weekend, Sidecar for Pigs Peace is hosting a bake sale:
Saturday December 17th 11am- 8pm
Sunday December 18th 10am- 7pm
This apparently happens a few times a year, but this is the first time I’m actually tuned into it. Whoops! You can visit their facebook page for more info on the bake sale. The bake sale is, of course, all-vegan. It would be a great way to grab a selection of treats for the holidays, for some immediate snacks, etc. And you can check out the store as well, if you haven’t already been there. In addition to groceries, they have some nifty gift ideas.
But the bake sale also NEEDS BAKERS! If you can bake for the sale, contact Donna via bakesale@pigspeace.org and she will send you the instructions. Drop off for the bake sale is Friday night and Saturday morning. I think I’m going to make my cranberry orange bread, since that seems to be the only thing I’m baking these days, and maybe something else–I haven’t decided yet.

Oh drat! Wish I would have purchased it when I was there. I saw it, but was overcome by chocolate options ;-).
