National Food Blogger Bake Sale for Share Our Strength


No Kid Stays Hungry, Great American Bake Sale in Florida, store front of Cork & Olive, organized by Julie from The Little Kitchen and Aggie from Aggie's Kitchen. Very lovely girls!

Amongst them there were other amazing food bloggers. Like: Jim from Comfort in Crumbs, Robin from Simply Southern Baking (blog coming soon), Pearleen from Mega Yummo, Dawn from Wicked Good Dinner, Jaclyn from Food Plus Words, Holly from I Could Eat, Katie from Katies Cucina, Suzanne from My Adventures in Food and Me (Wanda) from Here (My Sweet Zepol)!

We got together by mid May 2011 and brought in some baked goodies for a very good cause. It was for a well know non profit organization, Share Our Strength that has as mission to stop childhood hunger in America. It was a huge joy to learn that we raised over $1,300 in pre-sales and the actual bake sale. Awesome, right? It's an immense honor to work together amongst such amazing people that not only love food as much as I do, but love helping out the community and making a difference in a great way! Love you guys!

I told you it was an amazing group of people! Go by the provided links to there blogs and enjoy each of our styles and amazing recipes.

Next some pictures of my fellow food bloggers from the bake sale.
