I'm sure you've had it on your calendar for weeks, but don't forget that tonight is the biggest, bloggiest event of the year!! Since I can't really add much more, I'll copy and paste the details from my earlier post:
On Wednesday, September 29th, starting at 5:30pm, join us for “Cans and Cocktails” at Chinese Mirch, 35 Atlantic Street in Stamford. Each blog will sponsor a cocktail, and each cocktail helps fight hunger in our community. All profits from the event benefit the Food Bank of Lower Fairfield County. The event is co-sponsored by:
- Stamford Notes
- We Can't Stop
With support from:
- Stamford Talk
- Streets of Stamford
- The Lunch Break Chronicles
- CT Bites
- Blog Stamford
- Always Home and Uncool
- PeculiarBliss
Chinese Mirch is also donating 10% of food sales from Monday, September 27th through Thursday, September 30th to the food bank. There will be specialty Stamford souvenirs created just for this event. For extra good karma, bring a few cans of food to donate.
Additional information available at www.stamfordnotes.com and www.wecantstop.com. Please email stamfordnotes@gmail.com to RSVP. Hope to see you there!

The City that ROCKS
OK, this is one of the coolest things I've seen/heard since I moved to Stamford.
A few weeks ago, the Advocate ran an article (the link to which I can't find) about how a number of players on the Stamford High School football team were suffering ill effects from not having enough to eat - I'm talking about kids collapsing, sometimes requiring hospitalization. It was really sad; some players have very tough family situations and their parents simply couldn't provide enough food. Head coach Bryan Hocter said he needed $2000 to provide proper nutrition for his players.
And then I read this article. I'll let you read all the details, but I will say that it's AWESOME how the people of this city rose to the occasion for these kids. Heck, I was going to post about this and maybe even organize a fundraiser, but a whole lot of generous people were way ahead of me!
While we're on the subject of fundraisers...I have some big news in store. Stay tuned...
