Bake Sale Success!


Happy Easter, Dear Readers!!!


So, Saturday was my big bake sale!!! We held our bake sale at our town's annual Easter Egg Hunt. It was a gorgeous spring day in Georgia, and there was a huge turnout for the festivities. Our goal was to raise at least $200 for our county's Boys and Girls Club. I didn't get a chance to pull out my camera until we had already sold almost half of our goodies, but here are a few photos I managed to snap.

You can see in the far background of this photo, the children are all lined up for the start of the egg hunt!



We color-coded the tables:
pink = 50 cents each,
blue = $1 each,
and yellow = $2 each.



These moon-pie lollipops were a very popular item!


Here are the mini-cupcakes from my previous post.
The kinds liked being able to pick their favorite color.
The lemon squares also went pretty fast!
My mom's Bran Muffins were a great healthy item.


Mini pecan pies, mini lemon meringue pies, and peep cupcakes.
In the background, you can see the Coconut Cake
that a "famous" local lady made -
we sold it whole for almost $30!



Chocolate-Covered Pretzel Rods
Lemon Tarts
Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Easter Egg Sugar Cookies



Chocolate Chip Cookies
Trail Mix
Coconut Cake
Chocolate-Covered Pretzel Rods
Banana Nut Bread



We even had Dog Treats from Brown Dog Boutique!

. . . . . . . .

~ And a final tally of the money we raised? ~

$434.50!!!



We more than doubled our goal!!!

Thank you to all of our volunteers,
all of our bakers,
all of our eaters and snackers,
and everyone else
who made this event such a great success!
