Great American Bake Sale

Sunday, April 24th, 2011

Last year over $1 million dollars was raised
towards ending childhood hunger just by holding bake sales through
Share Our Strength’s Great American Bake Sales.
If you enjoy baking, roll up your sleeves and get out the flour -
It’s a fun and relatively easy way to help make a difference.

Here are some photos from our event last Saturday.
It was a perfect day, gorgeous weather with a nice breeze,
my kids and their friends came out to assist us,
and we were graced by friendly, generous patrons.

My beautiful mom, Arlene, scoping out the situation
before we open up for business.

Situated between the tee ball field and the dog park,
we thought it was a good idea to bring some tasty treats
for our furrier friends -
Homemade Vegan Peanut Butter Biscuits,
which seemed to be a hit – even with some of our two legged friends -
Go figure…


In honor of earth day, we also had the honor of sharing my brother,
Rick Reynolds’ fabulously fun and enlightening publication -

The EverGreen Twins Activity Book

A wondrous and relevant resource on Ecology and Sustainability,
that ‘teaches to multiple intelligences through
active, visual, hands-on-learning.’

More than an ordinary activity book, it contains:
Clever and challenging puzzles like Eco-dukotm,
crosswords, word searches and mazes;
Eco-friendly projects and experiments that kids can do themselves;
funny cartoons, and fabulous illustrations designed for coloring

We were able to hand out some of these coloring sheets
to the kids on Saturday, and completely thrilled
with the characters, they got right to work!

A perfect day at the park.
We exceeded our fundraising goals,
and will aim even higher next time.

Thanks to those of you who supported our efforts!
