I've been enjoying your posts and look forward to reading more. <br /><br />It was great reading your re-cap of CVM and I appreciate the constructive criticism. The food shortage was a major issue and it won't happen again next year. We warned the restaurant vendors that we expected a big crowd, but being our first year, they all erred on the side of being too cautious. Next year, we will keep a closer eye on that. Regarding more free tickets for people, I'm pretty sure we couldn't do that. EarthSave Chicago - the host organization - paid for those tickets, so that cost a LOT of money. Next year, we will have a different ticket system with larger portions that are affordable, I think, but I don't think free food will be on the docket. ;)<br /><br />We wanted to have more children's activities, even so far as to have a free "day care" so the parents could walk around unfettered, but we simply had too few volunteers and it never came together as no one stepped forward to organize it. Next year! We didn't emphasize the children's aspect because we knew that was not as fleshed out, but we will have something more substantial next year.<br /><br />Again, thanks for your feedback. It was very nice meeting and I hope to see you again before next year's event.Marlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17051769657129028820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-37247879374421126602009-11-20T06:53:34.595-06:002009-11-20T06:53:34.595-06:00Thanks for stopping by for a visit.

I do hope that it is annual so I can check it out next year. I'm with you on the SV love, yum!<br /><br />Regarding the chana masala you commented on, you won't be disappointed! Be careful for the wee ones though, its fiery hot as it's written.Sarah S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04757033974893707436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-57751591615640994792009-11-09T23:58:16.291-06:002009-11-09T23:58:16.291-06:00Sounds like a lot of fun!!Sounds like a lot of fun!!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09849244843626399133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-59137770694917864722009-10-21T10:53:31.763-05:002009-10-21T10:53:31.763-05:00Wow.
