"Angels aren't always outfitted with halos and wings, some come equipped with bowls, beaters, and lots of cake pans." I receive the Taste of Home magazine monthly and there was an article that interested me. The article was called Angles in Aprons and it talked about a non-profit charity called Angel Cakes Charity. This charity sponsors cakes for special occasions for underprivileged children, hospice patients, veterans, and many more. The organization started in 2008 out of Boise, ID and averages about 50 cakes per month. Angel bakers donate the ingredients, decorations, time, and delivery for their special customers. The charity's founder, Tina Ellis said "Angle cakes Charity was born out of my love for baking and the realization that there are children not receiving a cake to celebrate their birthdays." I think this is a great idea for people to do what they love and still help others. Hopefully one day I will be able to contribute to someone in some way using my baking knowledge and skills.

Excellent blog! I admire how you internalized the article and thought about how it could relate to what might be your chosen profession. How considerate to make a child happy through this amazing charity. Not only is donating stuff good for a tax write-off, it is also good for the soul!
