Bliss News: Global Green, G.O.T. Vibes, Twitter/Facebook

Here's a round-up of Bliss news:

Wow. We just got an email that said there's only a few days left for voting for us as "Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert of the Year" in the VegNews  Veggie Awards. This is the link--please vote if you haven't. :)

One little vote makes a big difference.  http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=oes_2f0tloz0fA1jHSyPxMyw_3d_3d

Global Green Gets Gobs of Bliss: We donated a year of Bliss (yep, we mean many, many pints of Coconut Bliss) for Global Green USA 's Millenium Awards. Global Green has been rebuilding New Orleans with green buidings and sustainable school designs (Brad Pitt works with them). They also act as advocates for initiatives supporting clean water, climate stabilization, and the elimination of nuclear weapons.


Gathering of the Vibes: Our national Sales Manager Marc D. is out at the Gathering of the Vibes festival in Bridgeport, CT  this week, selling Bliss. If you go, you can get 'still warm from the oven' new Coconut Bliss t-shirts! Yes. You'll be the first to check them out. Get your P-Funk and your C-Bliss at the same time. (And if you do go and see us, feel free to Twitter or Facebook it)

Twitter, Facebook, (and all that social digital stuff): So if you hadn't noticed, we've charged up our Twittering and Facebook activity with a bit o' new voltage--that means up-to-the-minute updates of what's happening in our Bliss-o-verse. And if you use Facebook/Twitter, feel free to become our fan (Facebook) or 'follow us' (Twitter)...and you'll be privvy to our spontaneous giveaways of Coconut Bliss t-shirts and pints (thanks to Kiley for her constant updates!!!).

PS: If you didn't get a chance to get a Dark Chocolate or Naked Coconut Bliss Bar at the Oregon Country Fair, take heart. They are available at a store near you (and if you don't see them in your local store, tell that store you saw em' and you want em' -- and you can print out this petition form to really get the point across to the store).

Goin' to Fair' : Yep, it's that season again--the team is going out to Veneta, Oregon to repreZENt at the prestigious, crunchy, fun and entertaining Oregon Country Fair. It will be our 5th year at the fair--we'll be selling our new 'Bliss Bars' : "Dark Chocolate" and "Naked Coconut" flavors. We'd love to see you, so look for us on Strawberry Lane...

Strawberry Lemon Love Sayonara: Speaking of strawberries...we'll be discontinuing Strawberry Lemon Love over the rest of 2009. Alas, we had to make room for other new flavors (i.e. Naked Almond Fudge, Pineapple Coconut, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Bliss bars!). Strawberry Lemon Love will take it's place among the rest of our 60-70 retired flavors...in that place of eternal bliss, where all ice creams reach Nirvana eventually. Nontheless, for those of you who want their Strawberry Lemon Love, there still are pints out there-- scattered hither and thither-- waiting to be purchased ...so get em' while they're still available in your local market's freezer section.

Summer blissings to you and yours...
