2nd bloggiversary!

.
Yes, folks, Where's the Revolution is 2 years old today! Little did I know two years ago that blogging and the vegan online community would become such a huge part of my life. I look forward to more years of sharing my life, my thoughts, and my food with you all. However, tonight's post has to be short and sweet. You see, Daiku and I are preparing to go camping tomorrow with 14 fellow veg-heads! So tonight, to celebrate the blog birthday, I bring you a simple and nostalgic summer treat:



Take some premium vegan vanilla ice cream...



...and some natural and authentically brewed root beer. Mix them together and what do you have?



A rich concoction known as... a root beer float. So simple, and yet so satisfying. These photos are from a party at our friends' house, and it was my first time trying the new coconut-based flavors of Purely Decadent ice cream. The ice cream was fabulous- coconut, vanilla, and even a hint of butterscotch perfectly offset the zing of the root beer. I raise a glass to all of you!

P.S. Thank you all SO much for your support and donations for my sky dive! Because of your generosity, I have raised over $700 of the $975 goal. I feel confident that I can raise the full amount which means *gulp* I get to jump out of a plane after all...

I LOVE rootbeer floats! (And we love Virgil's rootbeer at my house!) I still need to try out those coconut milk ice creams -- they sound so heavenly.

Congrats on the fundraising! That's exciting. Have fun camping!

Happy blogiversary! Wouldn't you know, I haven't had one for ages but I've been thinking about root beer floats a lot lately. I think I'm going to go make some ice cream now so that we can enjoy them when my mom and 5 year old niece get here.
