I stepped out of my "comfort zone" of making cakes for family and friends, and did a cake for a cake auction this weekend. I was thrilled when I found out it went for $30! The money went to the PTA for my son's school, so it made it even sweeter that the money went toward a good cause. Thanks for letting me share!

Wow, great job.
Think the lucky bidder got a steal for that creation 
Your situation reminds me of a t-shirt I've seen:
It will be a great day when our schools get all the money they need, and the Air Force has to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber.
(Before you start on me, my younger son is in the Air Force [7 years and counting] and I've supported him whole heartedly through all his assignments and deployments. 
)
Wtg emn very nice cake I can see why the bid went so high I'd like to dig right in lol
Janh I had to laught at that one about the bombers very cute. And I also think it makes sense in a silly kind of way as the children we educate today will be the defenders of our nation tomorrow.
Yummy! It looks awesome! I love how you placed the strawberries on the side. Nice touch. Very lovely work!
Wow- this is the first chance I've had to get back on my computer since I first posted! Thank you all so much for your kind words! This is why I love Cake Central- the support and help from everyone is truly amazing!
