Brainstorming for our Michael's birthday

 

Hi everyone, well this is my first attempt at starting a discussion so hope I’m doing this right... :D . A couple of weeks ago, I asked Gail when she thought would be a proper time to start thinking of what we fans want to do for our Michael’s 60th birthday. She said she was out of ideas, but suggested I’d start a thread asking fans for suggestions. I figure we have exactly 4 months, starting today,  to come up with something fun and get mobilised to achieve it. I’m no organizer, I just thought we could share ideas so let’s put our heads together and see what we can come up with! :D Take care and hugs to all, sincerely, Sylvie from Canada J

*The 2 most popular suggestions so far are:

 

- individual donations to michaelboltoncharities.com, mentionning they are made in honor of Michael’s birthday, of any amount you feel comfortable with.

-a collective wall-hanging made from personalized fabric squares sent by fans that will be stitched together. The 4 inch/10 cm squares (with small blank margin) only need have your signature and location but can be crafty as you are able. For

more info, ask here, or PM either me, or Amie Angeli who will be doing the stitching and presenting the finished product to our Michael.

 

**Note: The final deadline for recieving fabric squares is February 15th, so you don't have much time left. :D

**It would also mean a lot to Michael if fans donate to the Red Cross for victims of hurricane Sandy at:

www.redcross.org/

then E-mail Gail at boltoninfo@aol.com with your name and location, so she can add  them to the MBC donors list.

**If you feel strongly about sending Michael a card or personal gift, you may send it to:

Michael Bolton

c/o Michael Bolton Charities

P.O. Box 936

Branford, CT 06405

U.S.A.

*Note that the deadline for recieving cards and presents is February 20th 2013, whether you send them to either Gail or Michael Bolton Charities.

Wow! a cake is being taken to Michael on his birthday. Now how cool is that? Yum. White cake with vanilla icing with peanut M&M'S, how's that girls? Just an idea. Yum. though I'm not one for peannut M&M'S so Michael would be welcome to mine. I wish I could go to that concert but oh! well! Reviews, folks going; not on hbere, I know. :) Boltonnut from L. A. CA who loves life & Michael Bolton :)

Well as for a cake, first I have heard of it though, Michael being a vegetarian would a carrot cake be feasable, of course it would need cream cheese frosting though not sure if he would eat that. The frosting does have vanilla in it. Just a suggestion.

Hey Robin from Ca, yes Michael does have dairy: his favorite meal is eggplant parmesan. Take care girl. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada

Cake, too?!  Wow, this is going to be a big event!  Carrot cake with turquoise-tinted cream cheese frosting in the shape of a Grammy with peanut M&M decorations?  ROTFLMAO!  This is hysterical.

Sorry to be so behind on reporting receipts of squares.  Now in the process of letting each know, but I've got packages mailed from Dalian, China, PA, Santa Rosa Valley CA,TN, NJ, NYC, Madrid, NYstate.  And notices from PO to pick up more.  Gotta get over there again today.  cheers to all, Amie

Hi Kellie,

You made that cake?  Wow, you weren't kidding, it is beautiful!

Tami Kennedy (PA) is making or ordering the cake, not sure of details.

Click back a page, she posted looking for ideas. She is bringing it to the concert on his birthday.
