The bake sale! We did it! The final menu featured 21 different items baked by six local bakers. Of these items, 19 were gluten-free, 20 were dairy free, 15 were vegan and 2 were raw foods.
Grateful thanks to the bakers, to the shoppers, and to the people who donated funds that got us to an eye-popping $1000 by the end of that long and tiring day! Funds went to Red Cross Canada’s Humanitarian Crisis in Ukraine. From the generosity shown, it seems I was not the only one wanting to stop anguishing and actively support something.
A number of those who stopped by were unable to eat gluten, and expressed delight at having so many options to choose from at a bake sale.
