Make-A-Wish
















Each year the Make-A-Wish foundation hosts their "Uncork-A-Wish" event in LA. It's a wonderful food and wine-tasting treat with an auction to top off the evening.This year, at Barker hangar in Santa Monica, the prizes ranged from fast cars to pampering at spas......I even think there may have been a lunch date with McDreamy and McSteamy!!
I was there at the request of one of the sponsors, Moet-Hennessy USA, who were featuring Chopin vodka and Glenmorangie scotch.
Now, the star of the show wasn't REALLY Brad Garrett, the evening's MC and auctioneer, nor was it one of the high flying acrobats.......it was the stunning Chopin ice bar, complete with it's martini luges!! That's right...the bartender actually pours your cocktail through the bar itself into the glass you're holding, and voila....one ice-cold martini! Some celebrities were good sports and even took a turn at bartending.
Since it was for such a worthy cause, I did have to take a sip myself ( don't worry, the camera has an autofocus option! ).
