As I See It - 02.28.16 - Decadent Desserts

I never thought I would say this but I had WAY too many sugary delights at AssistHers' Decadent Desserts event at Neon Boots.

Various restaurants, caterers and friends of the organization donated the sweet things for participants to partake of and I almost overdosed on sugar.

As I See It - 02.20.16 - What Happens In Vegas

So, I wasn't exactly in Vegas. I was still in Houston on Old Katy Road for OutReach United's Casino Night fundraiser. Two of my friends, April Ayers and Bryan Hlavinka, were co-chairs for the event. I'm not big on casino nights but it is always fun to mix and mingle with friends.

So...I couldn't find the original Instagram file of this photo so I had to do a screen shot and then crop. This pair of shoes made it's debut at Legacy's annual fundraiser Schmooze.

Here are some of my photos from Schmooze but if you really want to see what happens at Schmooze, click here.

Jim Sikorski held his annual fundraiser at Gloria's in Midtown. It is named Sharing The Bounty. It was quite the crowd and they really did share their bounty. Over $7,000.00 was raised and the proceeds went to Legacy Community Health and Interfaith Ministries Meals On Wheels. Oh, I discovered my new favorite adult beverage...champagne and pomegranate juice!

It's that time of year when many non-profits are having fundraisers (luncheons, dinners, concerts, etc.) and I attended two of them in one day. Dec My Room held their luncheon at RDG and the food was yummy.

That evening, The Mission of Yahweh held their event at The Hobby Center. The incomparable Oleta Adams performed unplugged and I so glad I attended. What an amazing performer!
The view from The Hobby Center of the Houston skyscrapers is unique and sometimes the lighting and the sky and the lights on City Hall all line up for a great photo. And so, it happened again.

ERSICSS put on another fun fundraiser on Friday. I like TC's because it is a neighborhood bar. Thank you ERSICSS for everything you do!

Pic Of The Day - 03.13.15 - Bringin' In The Green

I was the guest of Montrose Ken to Montrose Center's Bringin' In The Green. This fundraiser has been going on for over 20 years and from time to time I've attended.

It's held the Friday before St. Patrick's Day which always makes it a bit difficult to enjoy the spread of food. "Why?" you might ask? Well...

St. Patrick's Day always falls during Lent. I do try to observe the no meat on Friday's Catholic thing. Now, there was some shrimp and I probably ate more than my fair share

I'm not big on spinach appetizers or guacamole but after that first cocktail, I started getting the munchies! It was then that I did eat some of the spinach dip and guacamole.

More importantly though, I was able to visit with friends. And yes, I fun time was had by all!
