Alcohol + Silent Auction = Bad Idea


So over the weekend we went to a chili cookoff and silent auction that my friend Leslie was putting on to benefit the Make A Wish Foundation. Zach and I have gotten into charity a lot the past 6 months and not only decided to make an appearance, but decided to look at the auction items as well.

The problem was, the cookoff was held at Atlanta Brewing Company with unlimited beer, so by the time we got to the auction, Zach wanted everything. We have been talking about buying a piece of original artwork for a long time, and have visited the art festivals at Piedmont park the last few years looking for something, but whether it be the alcohol, our good will, or the chili..we bid and and bought our first original piece.

It looks beautiful in the house..and the fact it's a tax deduction makes it even prettier.
