Sarah (a fellow trekker) and I decided that Valentines day would be a good opportunity to raise a bit of money. We decided to hold a little bake sale in one of Southampton's coolest clubs; Jesters. It may be pretty gross inside but its not called the 'Palace of Dreams' for no reason haha. Anyway, we decided that drunk people would LOVE cookies/biscuits (I know I would).
I baked the heart biscuits and Sarah baked the chocolate chip cookies (and holy moly they were so nice). Out of the whole process the icing was the hardest to do, especially writing the little messages on them. Some of them actually turned out well... others unfortunately didn't, but a lot of sprinkles rectified those ones!
I was a bit nervous about the selling part of it as it could have literally gone either way. Fortunately we were able to raise a whopping £118.27 together! I didn't think it would actually go that well but all those hours slaving away in the kitchen with my lovely helper Lauren paid off :)
Basically just want to say a huge thank you to all those people that bought the cookies from us or just donated out of the goodness of their drunken hearts!
