Guilt-free Retail Therapy!

The Bids and the Bees is only four days away--yay!  We'd like to tell you about some more of the fabulous items and services that have been generously donated by local businesses to our silent auction:

• A week's worth of delicious farm-to-table meals from Cuisine en Locale, which supports area purveyors by using seasonal, locally sourced ingredients.  This would make a very thoughtful gift for new parents!
• Gift certificates to Joanne Chang's incredible Flour Bakery, which has four locations in the Boston area, including one in Central Sq.  Be the hero of your family (or office or class or...) when you bring in treats for everyone!  (Or keep it all for yourself!)
• Gift card to Slumbrew Brewing Company in Somerville.  Think of the fun of choosing some great beer to enjoy, just in time for the warmer weather!
• Entertainment for a child's birthday party from Knucklebones, which offers an amazing variety of fun, engaging activities for kids of all ages!  They'll bring all kinds of cool equipment--plus enthusiasm and energy--to get everyone moving!

Whether you're a longtime fan of these local businesses or have never experienced them, you've got a great excuse to treat yourself AND support the Center for Families at the same time!  Please click on the links to check out their websites, and get ready to place your bids!
