Oh, Yeah

Say, Beltane is coming up and Esfenn is having that silent auction to support next year's Feast of Fine Arts/Arts Fete. I need to kick myself into gear about that. Clean out the garage... beg... plead... offer favors.

I know that we have a bunch of things for the auction, since the First Sword autocrat says that he has prizes already. (Yes, falzalot, you can skip that thought here.)

I am also hoping to have talk a lot of people into offering promissories or spiffy items. Just today, misagillian agreed to offer a couple of hours of babysitting at an event (priceless!) I'm also hoping to find other arts and service type promissories - one of my favorites that I ever had was a period breakfast for four by madbaker that semy_of_pearls won (sadly, a long time ago). Yummy. 

I will be calling a few people, but please (pretty please with a honey & wine conserve on top) consider this a shameless, brazen request for donations, a bit of volunteer time, or harsh rejection.

Oh, dear, I need to make a couple of hats for this, too. And maybe some pear crack. (That's a silent auction and bake sale!)

Ancient History (as it were): how about a complete set (minus the Elf Hill Times songbook, which got put in different places over time) of The Elf Hill Times? This is an old A&S newsletter that came out many years ago, and has been sitting on my shelf not being read ... dunno how much you can get for it, but it's gotta be worth something to someone.

I'd love that!

Okay. I will pull 'em off the shelf, and box 'em up, and try to remember to bring 'em to ysabella_dolfin's ...

That would be perfect!
