Aloha to Savage Fest (part 1) - Strawberries, Chocolate, and Dogs Galore!


Last week, my family volunteered at the annual Savage Fest hosted by the town's community association.  Our church simultaneously hosts the Strawberry Festival. 


So many treats ... the chocolate cupcakes are infused with strawberry cream.  Yum, yum. 


I contributed several recipes to the church cookbook. 


Over on the town common, children enjoyed pony rides ...


... and dogs performing Frisbee tricks!


I did not see Scooby ... 


... but I found the Mystery Machine!


I bet the DMZ enjoyed making this license plate.


Have you contributed any recipes to community cook books? One randomly selected commenter from this week's blog posts wins a book choice from my convention stash. Comments are open through Saturday, June 18, 10 pm in Baltimore. I'll post the winner on Sunday, June 19.

Mahalo,

Kim in Baltimore
Aloha Spirit in Charm City

The Boy Scouts served snow cones.

  4. No, but I've been in organizations that have sold cookbooks previously and they always had lots more to sell. I always will buy a 'community' cookbook. I may never use it, but I know what a project it is to pull one together.

  5. By the way, is Savage a place or something else?

  6. I have but it's been a while now since I volunteer at our American Legion. I use to belong to a women's club that did charity work and the cookbook was one of their projects.
