Pancake Breakfast and Moisture Festival

The Eastside Intergroup’s Fellowship and Pancake Breakfast was well attended with 200+ at the Bellevue Four Square church.  John and Victor from the 9:30 morning meeting sat with us.  The raffle had about a dozen prizes.   In a bizarre statistical twist one woman won four of the prizes.  She kindly gave two away to newcomers with less than 30 days, Lea got two coffee cups with a small Melitta fresh ground coffee funnel and filters.  It was good to see old friends and many others in recovery.

We also went to the 10:30 PM Moisture Festival event at the Broadway Performance Hall on the Seattle Central (formerly Community) College campus.  It was an entertaining vaudeville/burlesque show with striptease acts going down to pasties and panties.  Based on last night’s show, I doubt the performers make a living from their acts.  They definitely loved performing their acts to an enthusiastic audience.   It was an entertaining show with 18 performers including the MC. The grand finale was a striptease done with a bed and fake money being tossed in the air while another woman sang an erotic song about money and happiness.   The songstress was my favorite performer.

I am grateful we attended both events, that we are blessed with quality affordable events in our community and for Lea’s companionship.  It is nice to have a friend to do things with.
