What more could you ask for on a Saturday morning than a game a pin the tail on a tranny, buy a cupcake, pick up a vintage find, win some lovely jewelry and eat confections by yours truly!
If you came down the the Eat Your Heart Out Bring & Buy Fundraiser on Saturday the 10th of April you could have done that and more! As with all things EYHO this was a avant-take on church hall fete. All money raised went to support eight international unfunded artists. The funds enable them to continue to create new work for inclusive audiences across the UK.
EYHO founder Scottee invited me to join in the sale and I could not turn down the offer. A bit of a major accident happened on the night before the Bring & Buy, Scottee fell off the stage at the Round House, so rather than hosting the event he was laid up in the hospital getting stitches and casts galore. Myra Dubois and Ms Anabelle Sings did a wonderful job of hostessing the event.
There were stalls from selling vintage togs and jewelry from the likes of Tatty Devine, Phillip Normal, Rainbow Faggot and Bourgoise & Maurice. Art By James Unsworth & Ryan McClelland. The sweet tooth was catered for by Molly Bakes and some loud American known as ScottCanCook.

On offer were Mega-Chocolate Chip Cookies, Cranberry Bakewell Cookies, Junk Food Cookies, Mud Slices, Vanilla Salted Caramel Popcorn and some preserves from the larder. Everyone's reactions to the baked goods was phenomenal and inspiring. I came home with a bit of left overs, but the Junk food cookies were a sell out.
Most importantly I finished the day with the gusto to finally make the dream a reality. So watch this space.... soon you will be able to buy a ScottCanCook crafted treat of your very own.
