Bake Sale Success!

It was nasty, rainy and a little icy but people still came out. Atlanta’s Vegan Bake Sale for Haiti this Saturday raised $1365 for Doctors Without Borders. Holy Crap! A special thanks to Kristin for organizing the whole thing and Criminal Records for not just agreeing to let us do it in front of their store, but letting us take over the back of the store when the weather turned nasty. Those guys rock!

Kristin has a great round-up of participants here. I’d like to also add thanks to Alicia Simpson, author of Vegan Comfort Food, Alison Brown, Lisa Bennett and a guy named David, I think, for bringing out goodies to sell. The hard work of everyone involved enabled us to turn a bit of labor and ingredients into a much larger donation for Haiti.

And now, for some of my crappy pictures!

Mark your calendars! Sunday, June 21st Atlanta is participating in the World Vegan Bake Sale! Get fat and benefit animals, what a deal! Details are still being ironed out, but we’ll probably be set up outside of Criminal Records in Little 5 Points. Check out the blog for updates and information on how to participate. Even if you can’t come to one or participate, you can help by spreading the news with one of these banners.

I’ll leave you with a bit of food porn to get you excited about it.
