Last night we attended the annual Brethren Disaster Relief Auction two counties over. The auction has taken place for more than 30 years, involves 100+ northeastern Brethren churches, and raises thousands of dollars yearly to help with disasters around the world. There is plenty to see - all kinds of things are donated and sold. There is also lots of great food! We bought amazing homemade soft pretzels from an Amish family and a delicious dinner complete with chicken, baked potatoes, rolls, applesauce, drinks and cupcakes. My favorite part is to look at the 100+ themed baskets that will be auctioned off. The guys liked the tool-themed baskets as well as the chocolate-loaded ones! I, of course, enjoyed looking at the tea-and-book baskets. Lots of great ideas!
