The shops and restaurants of Westport Village (which I still contend is in the East End) are dedicating a night of food and shopping for Haiti. Each store and restaurant will be donating a portion of their proceeds from the evening of March 18 to Hope for Haiti. B and I very well may have to do our part to help by having ice cream at The Comfy Cow.
Hey that gives me an idea, what do you all think about a group outing? Kind of a Consuming Louisville meetup at The Comfy Cow for dessert? A bunch of cool people could hang out, eat really good ice cream and do a little good for Hope for Haiti all at the same time? What say you?
