Slideshow - GCHS Craft Sale

The Gadsden County Humane Society recently hosted its annual Craft Show & Sale on the grounds of the old Nicholson Farmhouse in Havana.  The weather was beautiful and it was wonderful to spend another day with animal lovers.

We're working on another event in November -- details coming soon!

The Latest Political Gaffe: Asian-looking Latinos

I have a love-hate relationship with the election season.  I hate the negative political ads, the finger-pointing, and lack of real solutions.  However, I do love the occasional gaffe that pops up from time to time.

The latest gaffe is Nevada GOP Senate candidate Sharron Angle tells a group of Hispanic students that some of them "look Asian."

Hmm... Latinos who look Asian? That sounds so strangely familiar.... I've been confused on more than one occasion with being Latino. Filipinos are often caught between the two.

Perhaps, Ms. Angle stumbled upon a crowd inside Jollibee?

Gap recently announced its Casting Call Contest for the new face of Gap Kids, and my sister entered my cute nephew in the competition.  Please take a moment and vote here.

GCHS Pet Costume Contest at the Havana Pumpkin Festival

Many of you know that I foster two dogs (Happy Jack & Pearl) for the Gadsden County Humane Society, and I try to volunteer whenever possible to support their animal rescue.  On Saturday, we had a booth at the Pumpkin Festival in Havana and hosted a Pet Costume Contest.  

I had a great time hanging out with animal lovers, and it was fun to see all the animals out and about the town.  Dog-parents can be very, very creative, as you can see the "Hooters girl" to the left.  Check out the slideshow of pics below!

The bake sale was also a success, and I'm happy that my loaves of Pumpkin Cranberry Bread and Dark Chocolate Brownies sold out.  


GCHS is having a Craft Sale next Saturday, 23 October at White Dog Plantation, 200 Coca Cola Avenue in Havana (former Nicholson Farmhouse).  There will be craft vendors as well as fun for the little ones.  There will also be another bake sale. Come out and support this great cause!


In case you didn't know, the Gadsden County Humane Society is entirely run by volunteers and always needs donations to support animal rescue efforts.  We also need foster homes for both dogs and cats!
