I know that bake sales instantly bring to mind cookies, cupcakes, bars and muffins. 
I also know that I never just go with the easiest option. 
Last bake sale fundraiser I was involved in I made cheese bread and savory crackers.
This time I went really wild
I made dog bones!
with my little helper, of course!
this truly made for a fun afternoon!
My little baker is quite good for being so young!
And the official taste tester, Roux waiting ever so patiently
(yes, everything revolves around food with me, even my dog's name)
She approves
nom nom nom
Sometimes when I'm eating something I really love I close my eyes too!
