What can be more compelling than snacks inside a bookstore? A good book, a cozy chair, a glass of wine in one hand and some tempting chips/salsa close by. Thats my idyllic vision of heaven!
On Sunday Dec 2, our LIFT team met at Books Inc for a small fund-raiser. Eric, the manager of Books Inc kindly agreed to donate a percentage of proceeds between 6-9pm towards HOBA. We had a small table where we set up wine, cookies, chips and salsa. Karen's choice of salsas were terrific. We tried to set up a salsa tasting contest! As the patrons browsed in the store, we offered our snacks and wine.
I loved chatting with my team. We talked about the HOBA book club that meets the fourth Monday of every month at Books Inc.
I bought a book that I have read a while ago and loved. It is by John Wood, the founder of Room to Read, and the title is "Leaving Microsoft to Change the world".
The efforts of our evening paid off well and was worth the time.
