FAITH and Guillotines
Just two days until our superfab Bastille Day Trivia! (Powdered wigs are optional, of course; cake is also optional; outdoor liquor is absolutely restricted).
I thought I would give a run-through of the groovy raffle & door prizes just to get everyone salivating. A partial list, but still:
Gift certificates for Mimi's Subway Bar
Gift certificates for Pasta House
Gift certificates Culpepper's
Some Bob Reuter photo books.
Some Bob Reuter/Thomas Crone photo books.
Some odd STL-related books.
Pageant tix for Reel Big Fish/MxPx;
Tix to the City Museum;
Tixto see the Chihuly exhibit at the Garden;
A '50s b-b-q set, with steer-head salt & pepper shakers and "chunks of meat" markers with little cow heads on them, so you can mark which cuts are roasted rare, medium & well-done, to avoid complaining guests (comes with a three-fer of Maull's);
A very peculiar set of lantern lights, to be given away with a peculiar colored-glass apertif set;
possibly some goth-y severed doll head lantern lights;
A big, brand-new cooler full of many flavors of Vess soda;
A gold mystery box, containing something I guarantee you have never seen in all your days. You want to know what's in the box? Play the raffle!
