It is the big time of the year, some call it vacation time, combine fun with an important matter, others call it the most important time of the year. Myself, I call it the time people show the good that is inside everyone of us. 

 I´m talking about the Home & Garden Expo,

One of the many Events for Relay for Life but for sure not one of the small ones. 

There for, I got some support, welcome with me, Cassie Eldemar. 

Cassie had to face many of my questions and I can say she did quite well, not a single drip of sweat on your forehead, even when I tried to smile diabolic. 

Our dear Cassie is not unfamiliar with Cancer since she is 9 years old. Her good hearted Grandmother passed 1962 away from cancer, her grandfather later while she was in college. I enjoyed to listen what she had to tell about her grandparents and I believe both of them were amazing people who had only love and compassion in their hearts, so we know from where Cassie come. 

A part of this love Cassie invested in Building in SL. Back than with prims like oldschool user used to create things, she found at one point the script for turning prim constructions into mesh and from there on Little Big Design knew only one way, up. 

Dollhouses are her thing and she doesn´t need to shy away from other Designers. While in construction a Dollhouse take easily 3.000 Prims, as mesh it´s only 10Li. That allow an amazing level of details that shows as well in the expo exclusive Lightower that have 3 different hidden openings. 

And for 500 LD you get an amazing piece of decoration for your home. The best part of it is, the money goes straight to our cause. 

While you will find many styles in her store, you will see a victorian pattern she is very familiar with, I would bet my money on it, that it´s through her grandparents.

You can find her store on SLM here:     https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/237407

Of course that is not all her doing for collecting donations. Her husband our mighty Olde, who is often busy with the general entertaiment side of things, get always her both helping hands, and if it´s only to make sure he do not dehydrate the many hours in front of the computer.

Last but not least, I asked Cassie how she would describe the Expo and here is her answer:
 

"the Home & Garden Expo is like the RL home & gardens events where you can see the newest and best things, only the one in SL is so much more fun!
When I was little, just the word Cancer was more whispered because there was so little that we knew or knew how to do. But today, there is so much that can be done....the treatments are amazing and the research is leading us to more and better ways of beating cancer."

Thank you for your time Cassie, let´s keep rocking against Cancer.
