Next Friday night I have a date with Karla, the Veganshizzle, in the name of cats. We're attending the House of Dreams Cat Shelter Benefit Dinner, thanks to Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Sweetpea Bakery. The Shiz and I attended the Let Live Benefit Dinner back in June by the same folks, and it was truly one of the best meals I've had in Portland. Hope to see you there!

i want to go to that SO BAD. stupid portland being stupid 3000 miles away. *pout* also, it made me smile some to think about how many people there are going to be whipping out their cameras to take pictures of their food before eating. ha!
Moskowtiz. I like it.
I knew you would, but I still fixed it.

Such a good cause. I will be there in spirit.
How cool! I wish I could go! I can't imagine how awesome it would be to have Isa-cooked food...especially for a kitty cause (I have six, so that's a pretty close-to-my-heart cause).
