Nice! We did the SOS Great American Bake sale last year at work. Every Friday, my coworkers and I diligently brought in tasty baked goods... there was even a very entertaining inter-departmental baking throwdown, complete with trash-talking.

But I must say, baking all summer long in the sweltering New York heat is quite a challenge.

Cheers!
