CAN-Tastic

So tonight we went to the mall and on our way from the grocery store, we saw these incredible structures. It turns out that various groups in our city solicited donations of food for the food bank and then created these displays to help raise money. We could (and did) "vote" for our favourite with a monetary donation to the food bank. I thought they were very cool even though they added an extra half an hour to our mall trip! But it was totally worth it. We also ran into a family from church, who I'd had a playdate with yesterday, so that was really fun! And remember, all these structures are made of food -- cans, bags of pasta and marshmallows, boxes of cereal, etc. And the title of this post is a nod to the punny title of each sculpture which somehow included the word "can" or "food" or something like that.

  2. That is incredible! I am always amazed by the creativity of people. If I had been in charge, I would have made a boring, flat smiley face that was about 1/20th the size of those things... so good thing I wasn't in charge :)

Thank you for being interested in my life as I blog it and for leaving a comment. Comments make me happier than reading a good book and drinking a cold Coke. Almost :)
