Last Sunday, Save the Animals Foundation held its annual spaghetti dinner fundraiser. Katie and I helped out with the bake sale portion of the event, and I baked some oatmeal peanut-butter biscuits shaped like dog bones and donated them to the sale. The entire event was a huge success, raising almost $23,000 for the cats and dogs at the shelter!

In addition to the price of admission ($8 for all-you-could-eat salad, spaghetti, dessert and drinks), there were 2 different raffles, a gift sale with STAF T-shirt and pet goodies, the bake sale and a silent auction with more than 100 different items to bid on! I was really proud to be part of such a successful event with such an important mission. And Katie and I had a lot of fun working the bake sale table.

As an extra treat, Kevin joined us for dinner after our shift, and he brought Liz T. and her little sister Emily along. They were in town to see a matinee of Wicked. And of course we didn't leave without some goodies of our own.
