San Diego Food Blogger Bake Sale

10 AM - 2 PM at Great News on Garnet in San Diego
Doesn't everyone love a bake sale?  And what could be better than a bake sale featuring local food bloggers?  Once again, our San Diego food blogger group is participating in the National Food Blogger Bake Sale in support of Share Our Strength.

In an effort to ease childhood hunger, Gabby Dalkin of What's Gabby Cooking, organized the first National Bake Sale in 2009.  This year the numbers are growing even larger as we team up with Bloggers Without Boarders to raise money to help hungry children.

While I'd love to have you all join us in San Diego at our host location, Great News Discount Cookware and Cooking School, I know such a commute just may not be in the cards.  As such, you can find a local sale near you on the Share Our Strength site.

Last year our San Diego sale raised over $1,700 and with this year's goal of $2,500 we'd love to see you at the event or would greatly appreciate any sort of donation through our San Diego Event Web Site.

C&H Sugar has generously offered to match the fund raising of the top 3 events, and as San Diego came in 3rd last year we are hoping to only increase our numbers this year.  You can help!

I can guarantee good food, good fun, and an opportunity to meet some of our fabulous local bloggers including the amazing Marie of Meandering Eats, the sweet Kelsey of Happy Yolks (my husband is still talking about her Pumpkin Granola from last year), and the delightful Kelly of Sass and Veracity.

Liv Life is donating Nutella Biscotti
While Liv and I won't personally be attending this year's event (liv's dance stage beckons), our fabulous Nutella Biscotti will be representing us in style.  The popularity of this recipe has amazed me and not a week goes by that I don't get at least one inquiry as to when I'll be making them again.  The cookie that has people who don't eat carbs returning for 4ths is sure to be a hit for you too, and you can pick up a bag this Saturday while supporting hungry kids.

  1. How I wish wish wish I could come - the living in oz business is a touch difficult to ignore though ;)
