Dessert auction

Well on Friday night we went to church for a Emergency preparedness night and a dessert auction. Well we took a dessert and $30 ready to bid. Now up till 2 years ago I never even knew wards did something like this but we knew what was happening now. Scouts all have to pay to go to camps and so that was the purpose of this auction. Well after learning a lot of new things about evacuating here for hurricanes and stuff we started the auction. Now I had made a pretty good looking cake that every one was looking at but not silent biding on. They did silent bids first. Then they start bidding out load. We were after a Oreo cheesecake brownie. Sounds yummy right. Well I guess they were because the final bid was $50. Any how mine went for $35. not bad right. Well the final bid was from a lady who would bring you a pie a month for the next year. She said a min bid of $100. My funny husband thought he would try for it. Well lucky for him some one out bid us by just jumping straight to $200. Nice amount for the scouts. Any how they said they were doing another one in the fall and so I am already thinking of a new dessert to try and be the highest bid on item. Not that I am competitive or anything. SO if any one has any suggestions I am all for them. We came home with some home made fudge though. It was yummy.

Ruthie's mandarin orange cake always fetches a pretty high bid! :)

Not you Tara being in competition with anyone, whoa re you kidding? I am glad that you all had a good time with the auction and all and I am glad that James thought enough to try and get you a dessert a month while he would be gone. That is a very sweet thing to think about.

Love you all;
