Eachy Peachy Pudding and Pie!
August 15th, 2010Oh what a night! A ‘WOW” of a time was had by all who attended our Garden Party Fundraiser at Each Peach café on August 14.
Three eras of garden party were emulated. One room was set in the theme of a 1930s earthy soiree; another as a 50s outdoor-diner; and another as a 70s disco-BBQ. Helen and the gorgeous Each Peach staff provided us with an outrageously scrumptious 3 course meal whilst Buckleys beer and Allira wines ensured that everyone had a jolly ol’ time.
A bedazzling array of raffle prizes were up for grabs with generous donations from Melbourne Aquarium, Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Readings books, Madman, The SBS Shop, The Abruzzo Club, and Fitzroy Therapeutics.
Guests were entertained by comedian, Daniel Burt along with our own didgeridoo player and story sharer, Shane Clarence.
It was also Bernie’s birthday so we got to help her celebrate too.
Thank you to all who came along.

The day dawned windless and crisp. At 9:15 we realized that a yoga and meditation session would have to be postponed while we anxiously surveyed the 30 poles belonging to Chris’ marquee we needed to set up. Chris sailed in on his bike with the instructions 5 minutes later, averting a collective aneurism.
