It's true. I've been known to bake a pan of brownies and eat a pan of brownies. In a 24 hour time span.
Enter Bake for Hope - www.bakeforhope.org and I have agreed to bake brownies, not eat them, and donate them to the Bake for Hope bake sale.
I met Monica when she contacted me through my ETSY site. She asked if I would donate an apron for the bake sale. Which I did. We met at The Coffee Shop for the exchange of goods! She has this cute red Vespa she rides. Scares me.
All of us know someone with cancer so it's easy to get on board with this cause. Wes was diagnosed with not just one, but TWO different cancers a couple of years ago. And if I think riding on a Vespa might be scary, I know when someone you love has cancer it IS scary.
For months and months we went through the tests and recommendations and second, third, and fourth opinions; the surgery and recovery and complications and more surgery.
Finally, good health. Wes has been lucky - blessed - taken care of by God. But it's been a rough ride and it's still in the back of our minds. He had a one year anniversary yesterday. (We ate cheeseburgers!)
All that to say, not eating brownies so I can help with the bake sale to help with cancer research -- I can do that.
