Save the Date for Blogsgiving 4!

• November 18, 2011 •

BlogsGiving 4 is today, November 19, from 4-7 p.m. at Pies and Pints! Help us raise money and cans of food for NW Harvest.

Yes, it’s that time again. So everyone pick up your phone and tell Siri you’ve got a new appointment for Saturday, November 19th. It’s the fourth annual Blogsgiving meetup and benefit for Northwest Harvest!

This year we’re taking the party North Of The Cut. We’ll be at Pies and Pints from 4 to 7 p.m. Incidentally, did you know Pies and Pints opens a whole hour earlier in the wintertime? Fall back!

Suggested minimum donation is $5 to NW Harvest and/or two non-perishable items. Since man is rarely motivated by altruism alone, your donation also earns you one specialty drink, like a Guinness with cider float, both seasonal and delicious.

Don’t worry, Pies and Pints is also kid-friendly, so feel free to bring the whole fam, as there will be non-alcoholic beverages available, not to mention MEAT PIES, and we’ll have markers and paper for kids of all ages to make hand turkeys.

All bloggers, readers, friends, enemies, and even frenemies are invited to attend. Blogsgiving is not just for hyperlocal newsies, but for anyone who might want to share a warm, social evening with people they know mainly through handles like @dawgs4ev. Come one, come all!

Audrey

Managing Arts Editor, Film & TV Audrey is kinda a big deal. She was Chicago-born and –raised, but doesn't miss the weather one bit (the people and the politics are another story). She spends a great deal of time eating oysters and drinking wine, watching movies and going to shows, reading Videogum and The Awl, and quoting Arrested Development (yes, still). Her favorite stuff on television includes 30 Rock, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Community, Parks and Rec, and pretty much any VH1/Bravo reality trashvaganza. In terms of movies, she tends to agree with Glenn Kenny. Fun Fact: She always tries to keep on hand at least two pounds of Tillamook extra sharp cheddar cheese.
