Let’s talk about weather… according to the current forecast, it looks like Gumbo weather. It’s gonna be chilly but dry, perfect for a warm bowl of sunshine and love called gumbo. 💛✨

We are inside and cozy. 🥰♨️

If you’ve followed us for the past 9 years, Mother Nature takes JOY in trolling us with questionable weather. 🚫🌧️

The show must go on! 🍲🏆

Hope to see you all there! So many amazing gumbos. Can’t wait to try them all! 🫶🏽

Hand full of tickets left at vegan2thesoul.com or use the link in bio.

Also, you can bring your own bowl but we will have bowls and such. And since the weather is going to be COLD on Monday, consider bringing Tupperware to buy some bowls of gumbo to take home!

Did you get your ticket yet?
