Eat My Blog Charity Bakesale

This past Saturday Caroline and I got up bright and early–I can’t say a typical habit of mine on a weekend morning–to do something good: sell baked goods for charity, and, boy, did we have an awesome time.  Cathy, founder of Gastronomy Blog, came up with the amazing idea to throw a charity bake sale, bringing LA food bloggers together with 100% of the proceeds going to the LA Regional Food Bank.  The impressive spread took place in the front patio at Zeke’s Smokehouse in West Hollywood.

The spread was quite beautiful and all of the baked goods were really impressive.  We didn’t take nearly as many pictures as we usually do, mainly because when the crowd came, it was a complete blur! By 2:30pm everything was sold out with more than $3,000 raised! Quite a feat for a few ladies and gentlemen armed with only sugar and flour.  And since it was SO successful, another bake sale is already in the works for 2010.  I have an idea, maybe California should have a bake sale…just sayin’.

Here are a few photos for your drooling pleasure:

Joy The Baker Picnic

When Caroline and I first set out to do a food blog and were looking for inspiration, we turned to the really popular food blogs:  David Lebovitz, Smitten Kitchen, Amateur Gourmet, and through them we stumbled upon Joy’s blog and were totally addicted. It was exactly what we wanted to do–something that felt personal, sweet and familiar. Along with the amazing, though accessible recipes she features, her sparkling personality is the thing that keeps you coming back for more.
