Every year we take part in a fundraiser for Girl's Inc of Alameda County called "Women of Taste." It is an event that features women chef's, restaurateurs, winemakers, musicians, artists and more, and supports the organization Girl's Inc, a nonprofit with the mission to inspire girls in low-income families to be strong, smart and bold.
Every year we try to come up with a different design theme for our booth. This year we decided to use goldfish as a backdrop. We filled glass cylinders of various shapes and sizes with goldfish of various shapes and sizes, added lights, bubblers, and some great food (for the guests).
At the end of the night we bagged up the fish for the kids, but ended up giving nearly all of them to the adults in the crowd. What better way to recycle the decor?
