update: Alex's Lemonade Stand Bake for a Cure

Thank you for your support of my fundraiser for Alex's Lemonade Stand. Through selling my baked goods we raised $240. I would like to continue this effort through the next several months, by offering a select few goods to be sold each month.

February will be Red velvet cake cupcakes or Sweetheart Cinnamon raisin bread.
March will feature Traditional Irish Breads, Soda bread or Honey-wheat oat Bread.

Donations will continue to be freewill. Orders for each month will be delivered the third Sunday of the month, unless requested otherwise. As always, Special orders for dietary requirements or special occasions will always be accepted. Please make your orders by the second Sunday of the month.

Baking for a Cure: Day Two

So I have decided on a foundation, its called Alex's Lemonade Stand. It was started by Alex, a little girl fighting cancer. She decided to raise money for her doctors to research pediatric cancers through a simple cup of lemonade. To date her foundation has raised 16 million dollars and more importantly has caught the imagination and involvement of thousands of people from children to grown-up kids. I think this is a perfect fit for the simple fundraising I envision. Alex died peacefully at age 8, lets help doctors find a cure for pediatric cancers.

Plan:
compile a list of bakeable goods.
Compile a list of possible clients(or as I like to think of them fellow Meaningful life searchers.)
Find a tribe: a group of people willing to either support me through kind words(thanks Vickie), love and hard work(making all those cookies)
Breath and love

My Aunt sent me a link to her plan to create a Mediation practice. In it she speaks about her five point business plan that includes
1) Be conscious;
2) Be teachable;
3) Be of service;
4) Always say “yes” to a mediation request; and,
5) Be the exception to the rule.

Read more about how she explains each of these at her blog.
