I think you should have a dinner, and the kids can write sonnets to put with placesettings.
Oh! And the fun centerpieces and such! Wheeeee!!!!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

And! I went to the Scholastic warehouse with Kat and got 17 kids' books for $46, including one Kat found called The Matzo Ball Boy. It's sort of like the Gingerbread Man, except, you know, a fresh little boy made of matzo balls.

After NZ though.
You're going to New Zealand, Perkins? Neat.
And Kat's going to England. Also neat. I have no fundraising ideas at the moment.
I haven't left the country in a long time. I need to work on that.

I'm still looking and researching.
I am watching Starting Over, right now. Hey Robin? Tess? So damned irritating.

you could come with us to England, Jen!

That would be so fun. And I can totally herd kids.

HA! We totally need kid herders! Or maybe not yet. We're aiming to have ~30 people travelling. That's our goal.

Trust my rage
Did someone suggest a bake sale yet? That's usually a pretty good way to raise money - especially if people will make homemade stuff.

yep. bake sale is definitely on the list. Car wash is trickier.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Perkins isn't going to NZ. Kat is. She's bogarting all the foreign countries.
I'm trying to decide between the UK or somewhere far flung for this year. UK means I get to see my sister (it's been a while, and will continue to be a while if I don't). Far flung means -- dude, FAR FLUNG.
The more I delay, though, the more likely it's the UK.
