Tips For Tots In Hearne

By
Real Estate Agent with BCR Realtors 262359

Tonight I enjoyed a great dinner at Ama's Mexican Cafe in Hearne, Texas. We usually dine there once a week and are very fond of the great food. My favorite,right now , is Enchiladas Verde (Green chicken Enchiladas) I know I know  ...sounds gross, but baby it is yummy!!!

Now tonight's meal however was more about the waitresses' tips than the meal.  The board members of the Robertson County Child Protective Services worked as waitresses in the restaurant. This is an annual event in which all the tip proceeds from the night go to the  CPS Board to help purchase needed things for kids in foster care. Things like school supplies, Christmas presents,  and other items the kids need and deserve will be purchased from the tips given this night.

Trey - Awhile back I think I commented on your blog that the town of Hearne was named after some of my family members.  I was going on oral tradition.  Alas, we must have had some real fabricators of the truth in our background, because when I checked closer, we were nowhere near being related.

By the way, I mentioned you in my blog piece today.  I was talking about great photography presented on ActiveRain by those who vacation, and have interesting critter encounters around their homes, etc.

TREY, What a neat fundraiser. That is the first time I have heard of that kind of a fundraiser.  How do they advertise it?

I did see it on the first page of a local paper. That helped a lot.

Hi Trey -- Enchiladas Verde has always been my favorite.  What a nice thing to do for foster kids.  Christmas must be a hard time for them.
