Last night, we attended the third annual Cooking for Kids’ Sake event.  This is a very special cause to benefit the Big Brothers Big Sisters Association.   Cooking for Kids’ Sake is a fine dining event, held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Cherry Hill, NJ featuring more than a dozen of our area’s best independently owned restaurants.  Our good friend, Joe Palombo of Mirabella Cafe, even took the time to explain to us this cool new idea behind South Jersey restaurants “going green.”  And you know Capone Photography is all about that!  If you too would like to know more about this (or know someone who may be interested in taking part), then check out the South Jersey Green Dining website.

Cooking for Kids’ Sake allows attendees to take part in the exciting live and silent auctions…WE DID! 🙂  There were quite a few eye catching prizes.  This year during the silent auction, we set our sights on the autographed Ryan Howard home run baseball (complete with 2 Phillies tickets), as well as the pair of autographed George Foreman boxing gloves…and we were the highest bidder!!!

We also took part in the live auction.  What did we bid on, you may ask?!  Well, for all of you Coldplay fans out there…check it out – –

May 26th, VIVA LA VIDA TOUR!

We walked away with some great prizes, and had a great time doing it knowing the money went to a worthwhile organizationn.  For those of you that couldn’t attend this year’s Cooking for Kids’ Sake event, there’s always next year.  The food is delicious, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the cause…is priceless!  Be part of something that makes a difference.
