We are 6 short days away from Love of Friends!
In the words of the Love of Friends organizers: Love of Friends (LoF) began on Valentine's Day in 2007 as a potluck to share a night with friends. Valentine's Day is often stressful for many folks, single or otherwise. LoF looks to share this day with great people and take pleasure in the talents of our friends through their music and art, as well as share good food and great company.
Basically, we want to dance, meet new folks, talk to old friends, flirt, NOT FLIRT, dress to impress and SHARE. The preparation of LoF is friends old and new coming together to make food, decorate, sew, you name it, the whole production is put together by great folks!
Love of Friends is a benefit party that supports the efforts of The Midwife Center and Planned Parenthood of southwestern PA.
And here is my own little two-cents about this party: The folks who put this together truly warm my heart. They are wonderful human beings, dedicated to making a day that is traditionally about buying crap to prove your love into a day about celebrating real relationships, romantic or otherwise, and building love among our community. I applaud them. And frankly, I can't stinking wait for the cookie table. I love cookies.
