One Sandwich at a Time...A Sandwich Making Extravaganza!
I stopped by to help out at OSAAT last night.
This new charity hosted their 2nd event.
It was a huge success!
I was asked to bring my 'sandwich-making hands' to build sandwiches that were later distributed to a homeless shelter. that evening.
One Sandwich at a Time aims to make a difference in a trying time in our world.As Audrey Hepburn once said, "We have two hands- one to help ourselves and one to help others."

A Indian Lilly Pond Themed Rehearsal Dinner
Tonight's couple will be spending their Honeymoon in India, so I created a lotus pond centerpiece for this family event. With Water Lilly's out of season, clusters of cymbidium orchids and galax leaves were replaced on top of a beautiful turquoise tablecloth.
By the way Water Lilly's are India's National Flower!

Dear Nancy,
We very much appreciate the table decorations you created for our celebration dinner last Friday night for David and Stacey. We loved the teal, the Indian theme, and the centerpieces with the orchids, lily pads, stones, and of course the beautiful frog! It gave such an intriguing ambience to the party! Again, many thanks for your creative design and artful execution!
Happy holidays! The Turner Family

Flowers Of the Week...Fall Romance
A Game Night Wedding The Bronx Zoo? The Down Town Association Does A Grand One!
I have been to the Game Night at the Down Town Association in my past and it was a carnivores delight! I'm not quite sure it's the right thing to do at the Bronx Zoo. But farm raised game or animals thinned out to protect the herd are mostly acceptable.
I do have to say my favorite game is Kangaroo and Ostrich. I'm so sorry Joie but your just so tasty!
