Baking for a good cause

l to r: me, Kim, Brandi, and Erin

This last Saturday I drove out to Silver Lake with my mom (who took this photo) to participate in a bake sale to support the Pablove Foundation, which funds pediatric cancer research as well as works to improve the life of children living with cancer through hospital arts and music programs. There were some amazingly yummy looking treats  (I brought gluten free chocolate mint cupcakes) made by quite a few blog friends of the lovely ladies, Kim and Brandi, who sacrificed their time and energy to put on this event and raised an amazing $480 to donate to this incredible foundation! Awesome right?! Definitely one of the coolest things I've been able to participate in!

oh wow, what a very noble project. =) I do hope we can have projects like that here. Toms had a project last month where you had to go without shoes. It could be five minutes an hour, whatever you feel, it was to raise awareness for all the street kids, kids who walked without shoes. And I think if you bought a pair of Toms that day on their event they would be donating shoes to the less fortunate kids. So anyhow, congrats on your successful bake sale. =)
