I just love it when I get to combine two of my favorite activities:  cooking with kids and community service. Share Our Strength’s Great American Bake Sale is coming up, and this year we are all in for something special.  On April 17, 2010, food bloggers will be hosting bake sales across the nation to raise funds to fight childhood hunger.

We are gathering bloggers from all over the country to help lead and organize bake sales in their area.  We could use some additional help, especially if you don’t see your region represented here.  A quick kudos to those who are participating already:

If you have been wondering how you might be able to make a difference in the life of a hungry child, this is your ticket!  You can help to organize the event for your state or you can grab your kids and bake up some tasty treats (We just made some fantastic cookies from Cooking Light.  Click on the pictures of my daughter cooking for the recipe).  Simply contact the person in charge of your region and let them know that you’d like to get involved.  If you see a void in your region that you’d like to fill, please contact Gaby (from What’s Gaby Cooking), our fearless leader: whatsgabycooking (at) gmail (dot) com .
