Calling All Bakers!

Does your home often smell of fresh-baked chocolate-chip cookies (and the scent doesn't come from an air freshener)? Do you subscribe to Martha Stewart Living magazine? Do you have an apron collection? If you answered yes to any of these questions, we need your help! For you serious bakers out there, we are holding a pie bake-off, and we need entries! The entry fee is just two dollars, and all proceeds are going to The Cesar and Ilusion Millan Foundation. Registration is due by October 20th (e-mail caity.tarbert@pair.com with your name and intent to enter the contest). Pies will be judged by esteemed CBW staff members as well as a special guest judge from The Pie Place in Bethel Park. Prizes will be awarded to the judges' favorite as well as the fan favorite. Pies will be judged on taste, presentation, and originality. For more details or to sign up, e-mail Caity at the address above.

We are also attempting to have a bake sale in conjunction with our garage sale at the Fall Festival on October 24th, so if you know the difference between folding and whipping, please bake something and donate it to our cause. Even if you can't tell a teaspoon and a tablespoon apart, there are these things called break-and-bake cookies...trust us -- no one will know the difference!

Bake sale guidelines are as follows:
-Bake whatever you'd like -- cupcakes, cookies, pies, bread, etc.
-Please bring your baked goods to Camp (971 Killarney Drive) on Friday, October 23rd or contact a staff member personally to arrange an alternative drop-off point
-Please package all baked goods in disposable containers. Your container will be sold with the baked goods, so don't put the devil's-food cake on your good wedding china.

So, pre-heat your oven, grease your cookie sheets, and get a-bakin'!
