Bake Sale

Some years back there was a charity event organized by the school that my mom taught at. It was a bake sale to support a local community cause. I remember my mom baked so many pies that there was no space left in the kitchen and my dad had to get really creative to fit them all in our car. Me and my sister helped as we could, mostly by greasing the cake pans and doing other easy tasks but it was a big deal for us and we were greatly invested. It was an amazing bonding experience which became a fond memory.

I chose it as an inspiration for my entry because for me family is not only Holidays and vacations but also a shared effort to make a difference. We do our best to positively impact our lives and the lives of people around us. Bake sales are a perfect example of that, countless families around the world join forces and contribute to their communities one cupcake at the time :)
