Ok, so I’ve marinated on this one for a couple months. And after much deliberation about whether I had time to do it, it’s a go. I’m making the time. I’m launching the online bake sale ”Bambino Mom Bakes“ in support of the Great American Bake Sale, a program of Share our Strength.
The bottom line: you can order baked goodies from me. If you’re near by, I’ll deliver. If you’re far away, I’ll ship them. (Yes, many baked goods can be shipped. Your deployed Airmen, Soldiers, Sailors and Seamen know this better than anyone.)
The very bottom line: your donations are utilized to end childhood hunger in America by 2015.
I will graciously, excitedly and thankfully accept any donation big or small (obviously). But to receive a yummy treater fresh from my oven, a minimum donation will be required. That minimum amount depends on the item you’d like to order. It is listed next to each item.
The Menu (subject to change):
- chocolate chip cookies ($4/2 dozen)
-
peanut butter chocolate cake* ($6/9×13)
-
sugar cookies ($3/2 dozen)
-
peanut butter cookies ($4/2 dozen)
-
peanut butter chocolate oatmeal cookies (the no-bake kind, actually. yum) ($4/2 dozen)
-
rice crispy treats ($4/9×13)
-
trash ($8/a lot)
-
special requests and personalizations are always considered
*This legendary delight probably can’t be shipped. If you’re willing to try it, I am. But I can’t make any promises.
So you want to place your order? Here’s what we do:
- Email me with your order and donation preference.* BambinoMom (at) gmail (dot) com.
- I’ll confirm your order, give you information on how to donate, and if you’d like them shipped, I’ll tell you the expected shipping cost.
- Next: I bake. You go about business as usual.
- Finally: I deliver. You eat and be happy. And you feel good because your donation is filling other tummies up too.
*You can donate directly to my “team” page - which currently consists of a team of one - or we can work through PayPal. Details via email.
NOTE: If you donate through the team page, be sure not to make it an anonymous donation. I need to be able to confirm that you’ve contributed to the cause. Otherwise, I would be donating baked goods to you for free. And that’s not what this is about.
If you don’t want to order a lot of trash all for yourself (don’t let the name scare you, it’s the most delicious concoction ever…), keep these good prices in support of a great cause in mind for your next shindig, work event, birthday party, retirement party, etc. Who doesn’t love homemade desserts? If they turn out alright, you’re welcome to take all the credit.
I’m so excited to start receiving orders, baking for you, and raising money to end childhood hunger. Please share this with someone who likes sweet things. Or someone who wants kids in need to have full bellies instead of empty ones.
Last but not least, if you’re interested in joining my team, I’m flattered. Really. But I work better alone.
JUST KIDDING. I would love for my one man wolf pack to grow. You don’t have to do it online, either. We can actually get crazy and host a bake sale in the real world, too. Email me, and we’ll talk deets (which apparently is the new term that means details… I’m still debating how I feel about that one).
