Bake Sale and Wristbands!

We decided to have a bake sale recently to raise money for the Heart Walk that we are participating in. The Heart Walk is for the funding of research and awareness of CHD's. Since this is something that is very close to our heart we knew we had to do it. So I had this idea to do a bake sale. Yeah! Well the first day we baked little star cakes, peanut butter cookies, and 4 different kinds of muffins. We made $7.75.

The second day we made 3 different types of muffins, sugar cookies, peanut butter cookies, and banana bread. We made $9. I'm starting to think we should sit in front of Walmart next time!

I also had some silicone wristbands made. They are yellow and say Bananas for Brogan ( of course, what else would they say!). We figured we would sell them for $3 a piece or 2 for $5. Honestly I was hoping that sweet deal would entice everyone to just give us $5 so we wouldn't have to deal with change, and so far I am right! Woohoo! So now we are selling wristbands and actually making some money for our team. Woohoo!

We are also going to make bandannas that say, you guessed it Bananas for Brogan!, to wear on the day of the walk. I have a banana costume from last Halloween that my sub commander is going to wear at the walk and that she also donned for the bake sale. Come to think of it maybe that's why people wouldn't really look at us, well mostly the crazy lady in the costume!

Doesn't she make a beautiful banana!

That's about it for now. Two days after the sale and I am still cleaning up from baking. Maybe that's why I don't do it that often. Maybe I should just get a housekeeper. Hey that's a good idea! Alrighty gotta go so I can pick some leaves off the money tree so I can get me a cleaning lady! Woohoo!
