Note: The frosted sugar cookies pictured ARE NOT the ones you get. In fact, mine look nothing like that at all! So, be forewarned. I’m making the traditional “christmas” type cut out sugar cookies with a buttercream icing.

Chocolate-Covered Katie April 5, 2011 at 2:12 pm

Melissa, I needed a photo and this was the only one I could find with white icing. If you have a better one, please send it asap!

This looks awesome, Katie! Just a quick note to let you know the Pure2raw twins link isn’t working (I clicked on it, thinking I might bid on their scones).

I also noticed that a few of the links are not working :(

Reply

Chocolate-Covered Katie April 5, 2011 at 2:13 pm

Ashley,
Can you tell me which ones? This is so embarrassing… I don’t know which to fix, because they all work fine for me! :-?

Reply

Ashley (The Vegetable Life) April 5, 2011 at 2:17 pm

The Cinnamon-vanilla-chocolate protein bars, the Indian spice kit, kathleen’s raw macaroons, and the chocolate orange cupcakes are the links that are not working for me at least.

Reply

Ashley (The Vegetable Life) April 5, 2011 at 2:19 pm

and the orange chia seed scones link is not working.

Reply

Chocolate-Covered Katie April 6, 2011 at 3:21 pm

Hopefully they’re all fixed!

When will you notify the winners?

Reply

Chocolate-Covered Katie April 7, 2011 at 11:42 am

Within the next few days. Please be patient with me, as I have about 100 emails (including around 60 winner emails) and remember that running a bake sale is not my job. I have other obligations and am doing the best I can.

Reply

Kristie April 6, 2011 at 10:23 pm

I was actually hoping someone would outbid me on one of the items I bid on so that I wouldn’t end up with so many treats — looks like I’m going to have lots to share!
Thanks for doing this Katie!

Reply

Matt April 7, 2011 at 2:36 am

Have you received your winning bid notification email?

Reply

Chocolate-Covered Katie April 7, 2011 at 11:41 am

Hey Kristie, I don’t want you to get stuck with more than you wanted! :(
If you can’t (or really don’t want to) get all the items, please email me and I’ll give them to the next-highest bidder. I don’t want you to feel obligated. I appreciate the fact that you came and bid on something to help!! :)
