More Great Eats and Sweet Treats
We’re keeping the tradition going with our lovely employee lunches. We plan to continue providing more on these savory vegan meals, including tips on how you can make them yourselves, so stay tuned! Our resident dessert maker Christina Oh has also started up her own blog based on the yummy desserts you see here. To read more about her sugary confections check out the Pastry Pit blog HERE.
Falafel sandwiches with peanut sauce, diced veggies and hummus….don’t forget the fresh salad!
Chocolate cupcakes masquerading as ice cream cones, with vegan whipped cream, sprinkles and cherries.
Rice patties cooked up with peppers, onions and mushrooms in a spicy sauce, and fragrant strawberry short cakes with mint and lemon zest-infused, frosting centers!
The sweet smells of strawberries and a cool breeze! Mr.Byron was ready for nap time after yet another scrumptious 6DollarShirts lunch. Thanks again to Austin Abbott for continuing to cook up such amazing meals.
Sweet Cheeseburgers!!!!
In case you guys didn’t already know, we’ve been eating some scrumptious vegan-fare here at 6DollarShirts, and it just keeps on getting better. We thought we’d give you a little taste of today’s meal; rice with sauteed veggies and tofu, topped with a peanut sauce that had just the right amount of spicy goodness! The meal today was finished off with cheeseburger cupcakes (also vegan and also yummy) made by our own Christina Oh. On top of working hard in the shipping department here, Christina is also an excellent baker and has been providing sweet treats to the 6DollarShirts staff for a while. It you think these cheeseburger cupcakes look delicious, stick around because we’ll be featuring even more of Christina’s dessert recipes and photos for you to feast your eyes on, and maybe even try your hand at.
Lunch #2=Nom, nom, nom!
Employee lunch number two was yet another success here at 6DollarShirts. Austin Abbott was once again on hand to wow us with more delectable vegan-friendly dishes. Today’s selection included pesto-dressed pasta mixed with peppers, asparagus and sun-dried tomatoes; fresh salads topped with tomatoes, apples and nuts; along with slices of marinated portobello mushrooms. And so it is with satisfied appetites that we are able to go back to work and continue to bring you guys the shirts you love at delicious prices.

First Employee Lunch
We’re starting a new tradition here at 6DollarShirts….LUNCH! Well maybe that tradition isn’t new, but the tradition of employee lunches at 6DollarShirts is. We’re going to start having fresh, hot lunches made for everyone to sit and enjoy together here at 6DollarShirts. For our first lunch we had the talented Austin Abbott create some delicious vegan fare for burritos. Employees got to fill tortillas with fresh guacamole, beans, rice, seasoned TVP and more. We’ll let the pics of all the deliciousness speak for themselves, but this is definitely one tradition we plan to continue!

Housewarming Picnic!
Its true! Our first big change of 2011. We’re finally in the process of moving into our new home. The new place is FOUR times the size of our old place which means we can work 4x faster and 4x more efficiently. Finally we have the space to kick out 4x the funny shirts and 4x the amazingly low prices! This move is the catalyst to all of our other big changes and improvements in 2011. We’re so excited! Here are a few pictures of us celebrating in our new yard.
6DollarShirts.com 6 Year Anniversary Party!
It has officially been six years since 6DollarShirts.com sold its first tee. How cool it that!? To celebrate we drove out to Ginnie Springs in High Springs, FL for some camping, swimming, grilling and partying. It was a blast and for once no one got hurt. We did get rained on, bug bitten and slightly intoxicated but it was a weekend to remember. Enjoy these photos!
