Thanks for the Donation. Who are You?
I’ve never been considered shy. I’m that nut who will walk up to you at the grocery store and ask you how you’re going to fix that cheese. Or who invites you to lunch five minutes after meeting you. Friendly. Boundary-less. In need of social skills. Whatever. It works for me most of the time, and it’s really worked for me in getting goodies for this auction.
In one case, I didn’t even have to ask. Someone left a comment on one of the auctions, offering a Papier Mache Bowl.

It’s a papier mache bowl made with a wire-frame base. She painted it with copper on the inside of the bowl and used a copper patina on the outside. The bottom is a glossy black. Signed with the artist’s thumbprint. There is also a hidden note of good fortune trapped in the base.
It stands 8″ tall and the bowl diameter is 12″.
Bidding to start at $20 $61.
To which I said, “Thank you! We’ll take it! It’s gorgeous! Who are you anyway?”.
Her name’s Erika. She lives in Boston, found us via Fluid Puddin, and is possible undead. I’m not sure. I don’t care. Who says zombies can’t be good people?

Not quite Boston, but I’ll take it.
