I'm a few weeks behind, but I wanted to share what I served when I simplified the dishes for my January 6th Epiphany gathering earlier this month.  I didn't want to spoil people's new year's resolutions by serving a lot of desserts, but because about 50 people were coming, I wanted to have only finger food.   A couple of friends brought food too--almost all of it vegan.  (My nice new neighbors don't know I'm an advocate for a plant-based diet, but their donuts were very pretty.)  Shehla brought samosas.  

Lynn brought chocolate-covered peanut butter balls/bites.  

Jan brought vegan  coffee cake she'd gotten from I don't remember where.

 
 

 What's missing in these very vegan-positive features?

The vegan cookie won a blind test among 28 cookies.  The Stanford study showed that in twenty-two sets of identical twins, it was the twins getting the vegan diet that showed the most improvement.  But There's no caption or hint of this in the headline or in the captions.
