Another Sweet Success!
Almost a week ago today, a ton of bakers, sweet eaters, and just plain generous individuals descended upon Pita Jungle in Pasadena to support our Eat My Blog Charity Bake Sale. Thanks to everyone’s efforts, we raised $4,323.86 for the Los Angeles Regional Foodbank which means a grand total of over $16,000 since this charity’s existence. Holy cannoli bakers!
Although the day turned out to be rather warm for December, causing a few make-up and chocolate melt downs along the way, our baked goods held up for the most part and were purchased swiftly. You can salivate over all the Eat My Blog baked goods, sans the heat, with pictures taken by our talented Wes.
