We went on a road trip to Idaho for the weekend. My grandpa is in the hospital so we drove up to Twin Falls to spend time with my grandpa. My dad drove out from Illinois-we were happy to see him. My grandpa is 95 and struggling with old age. He is a trooper and hanging in there.
We spent most of the weekend at the hospital with my grandpa and dad. We watched a lot of basketball-too bad Illinois lost in Double OT:( We really enjoyed talking to my grandpa and dad. It was fun listening to their stories and learning more about our family. Some of the stories I have heard many times, but they never get old. We had a lot of good laughs. My grandpa is still pretty sharp and witty.

I am thrilled to announce that I will be part of the first ever National Food Bloggers Bake Sale, which is part of the Great American Bake Sale. We are raising money for Share Our Strength (SOS), a national organization fighting to end childhood hunger in the United States.
Food bloggers from across the country will unite to support the cause by holding bake sales in their states. Readers will have the opportunity to taste the baked goods from their favorite food blogs at each state’s bake sale location.
Utah is going to have TWO bake sales, one in Salt Lake City and one in Orem. I am organizing the Salt Lake City location and Becky, from Utah loves Cupcakes, is organizing the Orem location. We are a great team and super excited for this event. If you live in Utah, we hope you will come out and help us raise money for SOS.
The bake sales will take place on:
Saturday, April 17th, from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.
Salt Lake City location-at Dan’s Market (1360 S Foothill Blvd)
Orem location- at Shirley J’s (15 East 400 South)
Thanks to Dan’s and Shirley J’s for hosting our bake sales. We really appreciate your support!

What should Two Peas and Their Pod bake for the sale? If you could taste one of our treats, what would you choose? Right now, I am thinking S’mores cookies, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Cinnadoodles. Any other suggestions?
I will be posting more details as the bake sale gets closer, so stay tuned! Have a great weekend everyone!
