Will Bake For Food 2011

What fun!  I’m going to be participating in Will Bake for Food, a food blogger bake sale to help fight hunger in our community!  The event is November 12, 2011 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. (or until we run out of goodies) at the University Heights Center in Seattle.

The blogger-run bake sale will be benefiting the Emergency Feeding Program, which provides food to families in the Seattle and King County area, with almost half of their meals going to children.

Last year was a great success, and here are the stats:

• 1631 items sold by 54 bakers, including 108 cupcakes, 82 whoopie pies, 473 cookies, and 150 vanilla beans
• 2 drink dudes who pulled 138 cups (55 coffee, 83 cider) in 90 minutes
• 300 people through the door in under 2 hours
• about 20 volunteers who made the event sing
• 1903lbs of food and $946
