Robin Hood cat

Next weekend my friends at Too Fly are having a fundraiser. This is the gang that produced Little Miss Glitz last year. They asked if I had any stock laying around to donate - and yes, I always do! But I decided to make them a cat like Verdi:

Too Fly has an upcoming burlesque-musical theatre show called Robin Hood, Prince of Tease. They said their colours were orange and green. So I made this cat! He's pretty solid, I put flax seed in his butt so he sits up straight.

And look, I made him a little Robin Hood hat too! He will be a silent auction prize, so I hope he enjoys his new home.

Inner Beauty Pageant

This past weekend was a Family Day in BC - long weekends rule!

I had the pleasure of judging the Inner Beauty Pageant for Too Fly Productions. This is the same company that produced Little Miss Glitz last year, and it's a fundraiser for their upcoming show, Robin Hood: Prince of Tease.

There was a TON of talent, from the contestants and all the other acts that performed during the night.

It was held at the Junction on Davie Street, and it was their second annual pageant.

It was SO much fun! And my friend Mike came and it was his birthday! So I got to celebrate with him.

Here are all 6 contestants.

And here's the winner, Matthew!

Here are the judges: me, David and Barb. What a fun night, thanks for having me, Too Fly!

Tapped

I made another candy basket for a fundraiser.

This time it was for FCP's Tapped, where you could buy a ticket and drink as much beer, wine and cider as you wanted, all night! I manned the silent auction table, and the event was a lot of fun! I met some cool people and helped out and got free chips and salsa, win-win-win!

Candy Basket

This weekend, my niece is having a fundraiser called Crescendo. It's on honour of her piano teacher, who passed away from cancer. She'll be doing some classical piano pieces, and her friends will do some musical theatre songs. And me and my hubs are going to do a tune on the piano.

I made a few baskets up and collected some items for a small silent auction. I found this idea on Pinterest - a candy basket. It's FILLED with CANDY and might not make it out of my house...!!

Masquerade Fundraiser

Last weekend we attended a Black & White Masquerade fundraiser event. All proceeds go to funding research for Morquio B. This was their fifth year doing this event, and it was amazing!

The decor was beautiful, check out this ice sculpture! They had a room bursting with awesome silent auction prizes, as well as lottery tickets, 50/50 tickets, and really awesome thank you bags.

Look at this handsome devil.

The hubs and a bunch of my friends sang a medley from Phantom of the Opera. It was a great night all benefitting a great cause.
