Somos Fiesta


Yahoo! What fun the fiesta was! The auction items were classic Vancouver; beautiful First Nations mask, drum & box, handknit socks, refurbished 70's peugot bike, massage and spa days, framed photo of a cool leaf and a BIG box of chocolates, among other things. Heather & Greg were marvelous hosts! Chocolate hearts were handed to each guest upon arrival, thanking them for coming. Lots of chatting, making bids on the live and silent auction items interspersed with slide shows of Guatemala, the plans and site overview from the architect and some wonderful music. I kept the desserts flowing which were all donated and kept arriving throughout the night. I had some leftover honeycomb from the box filling so I sprinkled that around the cream puffs, bars and cookies. People loved the honeycomb. It was a wonderful evening and those kids in Guatemala are that much closer to having a home.
