Thanks to everyone–organizers, bloggers, and bakers (Not Derby Pie, Thrifty DC Cook, One Bite at a Time, Adventures in Shaw, Macheesmo, French Twist DC, Pete Bakes!, 1 Tsp Love, One Vanilla Bean), not to mention all the fantastic cookie fiends–who braved Sunday’s early chill to help raise $950.00 for Doctors Without Borders’ Haiti relief efforts. This is particularly kick-ass given that we were open for a mere two hours and faced with competition from some marauding Girl Scouts and THEIR cookies… you know, the ones made in factories in Indiana? Hmph. For those with practical concerns, all unsold baked goods were delivered to the N Street Village.

Below, please find an awesome video of the event, and some lovely pix fresh from the oven… er, camera. Thanks again, everyone!

The lovely Rivka over at Not Derby Pie has rallied round some of D.C.’s food bloggers for a bake sale to benefit Haiti (via Doctors Without Borders, a very nice organization indeed). The Fruits will be contributing their ever so cool icebox cookies and peppermint brownies in addition to helping man the sale, so stop by! We will surely steer you right–though, really, how could you go wrong? See you Sunday morning at the Dupont Farmer’s Market! Or, more specifically, in front of Zorba’s Cafe, 1612 20th Street, N.W.
