Be Jane’s Best Bud

It’s auction time again.
Every year I donate items to Brenda Novak’s auction which raises money to find a cure for diabetes and this year I’m giving away two items: a trip to Hawaii (which includes air, hotel, surf lessons and spending money) and a Be Jane’s Best Friend For a Year.

Clap Your Hands
