Hey, Bostonians! If you're looking for something to do before the Buffy show on Friday, I'll be selling chocolates at this fundraiser:

**************************************************************************

The "Help Modpixie Complete Her Feature Film Before She Turns 30" Night!
27 MAY 2005
Unitarian Universalist Church
147 High Street
Medford MA
7:30pm | all ages | $12

FEATURING:
KAMIKAZE HEARTS -- a new ensemble that performs new
music with a uniquely rootsy feel
SWEET LORETTA'S SNAKE OIL JUG BAND -- the North
Shore's finest jug band, serving up a set of their wonderful music
THE GRINDHOUSE MARIONETTES -- a theatrical troupe of
human marionettes in a new sketch
"THE UNHAPPY MEDIUM" -- the short that started it all,
in which a young man runs afoul of his temperamental aunt and
throws a seance.

***************************************************************

The menu will include three types of truffles (Orange Liqueur, Espresso Dark and Chambourd), chocolate-covered strawberries, and micro-cheesecakes. Just so y'know.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm Brian chocolates. A couple questions though, because I don't know what I'm doing Friday but want to contribute (and please no one take my questions the wrong way). Can you get in to buy chocolates and mini-cheesecakes without paying to go to the show? And when did you start making mini-cheesecakes?

Hmm...I dunno for the first question (I'd think so, though, under the Every Little Bit Helps rule of fundraising); for the second one, I started on Monday when i was looking at all the chocolate cups I'd made and thought "I'm tired of mousse...what else can I put in these?"

So they're not *really* cheesecakes, technically, since there's no crust. Just really really rich sweet cheese-y filling in a chocolate shell.

Mmm, those sound good. Turns out I am busy tomorrow though. :(

I would have liked to drop by and at least bought chocolates to contribute but don't have the cash to drop $12 on a show I couldn't make it to. You know? That's why I asked.

Yes, I realize I could just send along what I could but Brian chocolates would be a sweet bonus.

How come I feel like I sound like an ass? I'm not trying to. I'm actually tying to be helpful. *cry* I really hope no one takes my question the wrong way.

It's just that I'm a little confused. Does the Buffy show start after this show?

*hugs* Your good intentions were clear, honest! And don't worry; you'll have other chances in the near-future to a) donate to Chelsea's good cause and b) get exposed to my chocolates. God, I've got soooo many recipies to try out...

Were you looking at the b0st0n board again? After I've stared at it too long, every post or comment I try to make looks ass-y. It's like some of the doofuses there are infectious.

Buffy complicates the night because it's happening in Brookline, and the benefit's in Medford. Which'll make things more exciting: when I finally plop my butt down in the Coolidge Corner seat, I'll know I've EARNED it. (And if I don't get there in time and I have to go to the bar across the street and drown my sorrows, I'll have earned that beer, too.)

I came up with an example for what I was trying to ask. You don't need to buy a movie ticket to buy the movie concessions. But I'm glad my good intentions were clear.

Nope, I don't look at that board often and when I do I don't read the comments.
