I provided cookies for my PFS players at GenCon last year...it's my intention to do something similar again this year for my players at PaizoCon. :)

Awesome! I'm looking forward to that. (sorry, Jason)
Sorry for the noob-ish question, but will Lilith be providing actual real-live cookies at Paizocon?
I hope so, it's half the reason I'm going!

Why, what's wrong with the cookies at DMTools.org?
Aren't they good enough for you?
I didn't even know they had cookies there. Oh my.
It's just that I've heard about the world-famous Lilith and her world-famous cookies, and I was hoping there would be non-virtual cookies at the con. :)
Galletas! Yay!!!
Lilith, remind me to make some cookies for PaizoCon as well. Perhaps we can make a trade.
Oh, and I might as well mention it here, while I don't anticipate bringing cookies to my game, generally when I run a one-shot convention game I bring Sean-painted minis for the characters I provide, and when the game is done you get to keep your character's mini.
So even if you're thinking, "I do NOT want to be in Sean's PaizoCon game, but if I get a free mini out of it...."

Okay, now I'm really wishing I was going. Free Sean-painted minis = worth drive across the country.

Woot! Cookie exchange! I make them veggie-friendly (no eggs). :)

Cookies without eggs?
Isn't that like the Players Handbook without Gnomes?
(I'm an evil man, I know. ;-) )
Cookies without eggs?
It's doable, trust me. :P
At this point of fame, the Lilithian Cookies should be available for sale online.
No, not on PDF, for delivery. Like pizzas.

Doable?
That vegan biscotti you sent me announces its absence with a lingering palate-haunt. Consider me forever transformed by the experience. You are the master of cookies!
MASTER! MASTER!
MASTER OF COOKIES I'M PULLING YOUR STRIIIIIIIIIIINGS!
People who don't eat eggs, milk, or cheese are just freaks!
Hey I just found out that they don't really put girl scouts in girl scout cookies... am I the last one to know this?
*really wishes he could go to ANY con*
=/ Are you sure? I could have sworn there was at least a little girl scout in those Samoan thingies... I want my four bucks back.

Generally, I do agree with you...but when making them for known vegetarians and you don't know how hardcore of a vegetarian they are...I went with the safer route.

That is like having a gluten allergy and not being able to drink beer.
Where is the survival of the fittest?

Technically the making of the cookies involves a ritual of blood sacrifice.
So...there IS a little bit of Girl Scout in every cookie. They stopped using "whole" Girl Scouts years ago due to the calorie content.

Is a Girl Scout, husband to a Girl Scout, and father of a Girl Scout.

Nope I ordered 15 boxes and didn't notice any in my samoans.
Only lasted me 3 days. *addicted to cookies*Thank God I still go thru my old kickboxing regiment or I'd propbably be as big as a Tarrasque.

It's easy:
If a person self-identifies as a vegetarian, they are a relatively normal person and you can assume they eat dairy and eggs.If a person self-identifies as a vegan, they are freaks and probably only eat nuts and twigs.
:)
(This points back at my old adage, "anyone less vegetarian than you is immoral, anyone more vegetarian than you is a freak." Which points back at George Carlin's adage, "Anyone who drives slower than you is a moron, anyone who drives faster than you is a maniac.")

Dairy I'll assume, but generally not eggs...being proto-chickens n' all. :P
In my perfect "I love Paizo world" I'd set up a grill/portable kitchen in y'alls parking lot and make lunch. Of course, I'd have to enslave several helpers to do so...
Ah, I love the smell of bigotry's generalities in the morning!

I make a perfect slave as I no longer have any self esteem and am quite used to doing as women tell me. ;)

I tend to view the vegan lifestyle as a secular answer to joining a monastery.
In the health food stores here I've seen non-gelatin capsule shells. Can you imagine buying a bottle of Tylenol and having to spend a good chunk of your evening opening each capsule and transferring the medication inside to a new one? That's the sort of self-abuse I'd only associate with a religious ascetic.
For any vegans on the site: don't consider this an attack, just an outburst of incredulity.

For pain relievers, just use the Caplet option instead of the Gel Cap option and you're alright. I try and avoid painkillers as well, unless the gnomes are really trying to gnaw their way out from within. Hate those little bastards. I can indeed imagine doing anything in this world to avoid putting gelatin, or a fresh cat poop for that matter, onto my tongue. See, from my viewpoint, the abusive choice, should you ever see how the stuff is... made, is in eating gelatin because you think it would be more difficult not to. "It's easy! Everyone's doing it! Don't be a pussy!" Man, I knew a guy who would eat grizzly dick if you dared him to because the fool thought that eating peculiar and gross fare was one of those things that made a man, and yet that same fellow let me down in a huge way on a day when it really mattered. IMO, it's often voices of conformity in most peoples' heads that get them to agree to what think is a bunch of crazy bidnith, become the proponents of unfair rhetoric, and last but not least... house cat rape. Did you know that rugged individualists never rape tabbies? It's a fact. Look it up.
I think eating only the things I want in me is self love, not self abuse. Self abuse is when I pleasure myself wearing a steel wool mitt and listening to Aha. Which reminds me... it's that horrible time again. Lemme go get the peroxide, just in case I pink up again. BRB.
While we're hunkering down over vegans, let's remember what most people say about us gamers. When I was in Gen Con, nobody took me for a gamer, and you WOULD NOT BELIEVE the things that came out of people's mouths. Until that moment, I had no idea what freaks they thought we were. Sucks when you're not in the majority.

Hmmm. Immora once made some bacon maple cookies for her teacher that were awesome... I should see if I can convince her to make somethings for cookie exchange. Very not vege friendly though. =/

This, +1.
I don't give two hoots about what anyone eats, believes, is attracted to (within reason), drives, watches on TV or whatever. I only care when they tell me any of my preferences in any of the above is wrong.
"But, houstonderek, you're quite opinionated on several topics on these boards, why, sometimes you don't seem tolerant at all!"
Well, life would be boring if everyone just posted "..." every post. Gotta stir the pot a bit to get the post count up on the threads, you know.
Anyway, I am sad I won't be traveling to the Great Wet North this year for the con. I've been curious about the "Galletas Sabrosas" Lilith is legendary for baking :)

Why some of my best friends have been bacon. I'll put up a photo gallery on Facebook of my trip to Milan with college buddy Crispity J. Bacononi. Boy did we young rakes get ourselves into trouble with the local girls. Tragically, Crispity lost his life last year when he fell asleep sunbathing and was set upon by beach goers. I'm sure you read about the tragedy in the papers. His body could not be found and so there was no proof of murder, but I firmly believe the evidence of that horrid devouring is still being picked out of the perpetrators' teeth wherever they dare hang their heads in shame. R.I.P. Crispity. R.I.P.
