A Locavore Giveaway!

We’re only a few weeks away from the Ohio Buckeye Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s event, Locavore. Wine is ready to be poured, silent auction items are ready, chefs are prepping, The BFF has his speech ready. Then there’s me – I have no idea what I’m going to say and nothing to wear.

But nonetheless, I’m so excited for this fundraiser. To see my best friend being honored for his positive attitude and being an inspiration to so many people…well it just makes my heart happy!

Beside seeing The BFF, what else can you expect at this event? A night of fine wine, beer, music and dancing. Plus you are able to taste food from this fantastic list of chefs (the list is still growing!)

Lilly’s Handmade Chocolates – Meet the Chocolates
Momocho – Mod Mex
Corleone’s Ristorante – Casual Italian Dining in a Cosmopolitan Atmostphere
Amp 150 Restaurant & Bar – America’s Modern Palate
Nosh Eatery – A Creative Eating Experience
John Palmer’s Bistro 44 – A Stylish Oasis of Cutting-Edge Cuisine
Indulgence Cakes – Craveable Cakes

Tickets are currently on sale with two ticket options available. The $95 level includes bubbles, which I can’t wait for. For $75, you will be able to drink wine, beer and have food from all of these fantastic chefs. Be sure to purchase a ticket soon – not only is it a fun night, it’s also a way to support the mission of the National MS Society. The resources that are available to those with MS, as well as family, friends and caregivers, have helped to assist the thousands of Ohioans who daily live with MS. If you don’t know a lot about MS, this event is the perfect opportunity to learn more and find other ways to get involved and GIVE BACK!

Personally, this kid is my favorite short track speedskater. EVER.
