Last weekend Simply Sweet donated over $250 worth of baked goods for Austin Bakes for Bastrop. Together with other bakers, bloggers, volunteers, professional chefs, and business owners we helped raise $12,765 for the Central Texas Wildfire Fund. It was so wonderful to be a part of this group and help out in any way we could.
One touching moment from the bake sale was when a young girl walked up to me (Jenn) and said, "Thank you so much for what you are doing. You don't know how much this means to me. My father's house burnt down in the fire." I was so touched by her, as were the others at our table. It made what we were there doing so much more meaningful.
We want to thank all our family and friends who came out to support us as well! We hope you enjoyed your cookies and cupcakes!
