Author's Note: I wrote these little drabbles to help raise awareness of US food banks' shortage of food donations. Hear the NPR news story at: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6530180

And find a food bank near you at America's Second Harvest: http://www.secondharvest.org/

Please note, I am not affiliated with NPR or Second Harvest in anyway. Just trying to encourage people to donate food. :D If you like the fic, donate food and spread the word!


II. TECHNICALLY

The second time River hit him with a can of peaches he’d just finished his workout for the day. He was wiping the sweat off his face and trying to ignore the two giggling girls racing around the cargo bay when he was suddenly deluged with syrup and peach halves followed by a can bouncing off his shoulder and across the floor. They ran off shrieking with laughter.

He guessed it was technically Kaylee that dropped the can on him but since River was the one who’d been chasing her across the catwalk, he put it on her tab anyway.

LOL, these are so cute!

And yes, donate to Second Harvest! Donating one can of food is better than donating none at all!

wonderful idea - stories for charity. This year I dontated to the heifer foundation. They buy animals for families in third world countries, so that the animal, i/e a goat or chicken can keep feeding the family all year. you can find out more at http://www.heifer.org

But never you fear, I'm giving to the food bank as well.
