Have you been to San Diego?
Whether you live here, you've visited our fair city or you've always wanted to, we're offering a little piece of it for the amazing Bloggers Without Borders and A Fund for Jennie.
The food blogging community has done a mind-boggling job rallying around Jennie and her daughters. Since the passing of her husband, Mikey, there are many considerations that require addressing as they move forward. A Fund for Jennie was established to make that journey easier. After two days of fundraising, #AFundforJennie raised over $14,000!!
I have met so many wonderful people through the food blogging community, so it's fitting that this auction is from a fabulous group of San Diego food bloggers. We've put together this awesome basket with over $200 worth of homemade goodies and tastes of our home. We hope to share it with you!
The basket includes:
Please include your email address (it will be visible to only me) so that we can reach you if you win. The package will ship around September 8 and the entirety of your donation will be going towards A Fund for Jennie. We also welcome questions in the comments, if you have any. Thank you, thank you for your help!
