Miss Deeds March 2007 Easter Basket Making for Olive Crest

Mon, 26 Mar 2007 17:23:53 GMT

On Sunday, the Miss Deeds gathered at Miss Perfection's home to make Easter Baskets for Olive Crest Abused Children's Home.

We all chipped in $20 and bought lots of Disney, toiletries, and decorative stuffing to make Easter baskets for Olive Crest's annual event. We ended up making 18 - 6 for little girls, 6 for teenage girls, and 6 for teenage boys.

Each Miss put her own special touch on the baskets, making every basket unique and personal. "Miss Perfection" was trying her best not to fix and critique everyone's work.

Life is truly sweeter when you give, as we had a sweets and treats buffet on a tiered serving tray filled with cupcakes and candies. Unbelievably, "Miss Jolie" actually baked and put icing on yummy vanilla cupcakes (thus accounting for her vintage housewife look that day) while Miss Classy topped them off with sprinkles. And "Miss Secret" was, of course, fashionably late and texting boys while making baskets... ;o)

We ended the day with a meal on the patio of Cafe TuTu Tango listening to the tropical beats of the performer outside, playing Lionel's Ritchie's "Easy Like Sunday Morning" (plus we made off like bandits with an entire free box of fresh raspberries on the almond flan -- you'd have to be there to understand the significance of that one). A fun and easy Sunday it was indeed...
