Sweet Charity

Saturday night my Branch did a Thanksgiving Feast and Charity Auction to raise money for Sub-for-Santa. My friend Kimmi came along and we had a great time. I made a Christmas centerpiece to auction off and I bid on and won a really cute Fall cake in the silent auction! Pumpkin cake with cream cheese frosting, yum! Also, got to know a few more ladies in the Branch so that was nice.

Part of the auction was live and there was an item up for bid that for some reason Kimmi felt compelled to bid on! It was a double date that promised to be "fun, fun, fun!" They had the gentlemen stand up and we didn't know either of them, but I recalled talking to one of them before and he seems kinda....weird...so I told Kimmi to stop...but she kept bidding. I did the "cut it" signal by running my hand across my throat and she looked at me and her face lit up and she hoisted her paddle into the air and bid once again! Going once, going twice, sold!!!!! Kimmi looks up in surprise...who me?!!?! Yep a lovely dbl date with one possible weirdo for the price of $65! I was so ticked off, I told her I wasn't going cause it wasn't my bright idea. Of course I relented later because she's my pal and "it's for the children" (think of the children!). We found the guys and Kimmi gave them her #; so I should have something interesting to write about shortly.
