Hey, check it out -- I have two recipes in <a href="http://www.cafepress.com/janemadison">the Cake Walk calendar</a>, a charity project organized by Mindy Klasky. The link takes you to a Cafe Press store; here's a bit o' description:<br /><br /><i>This Cafe Press store features real recipes from the imaginary bakery -- all recipes were provided by leading authors, including Julie Czerneda, Kelly Gay, Laura Anne Gilman, Mindy Klasky, Seanan McGuire, Saundra Mitchell, Mary Stanton, and Jennifer Stevenson. All proceeds from sales of all merchandise benefit First Book, a nonprofit organization with a single mission: to give children from low-income families the opportunity to read and own their first new books.</i><br /><br />So, y'know, buy a calendar, get some awesome recipes (I submitted two of them!), help kids get access to books -- everybody wins! My recipes are awesome, by the way, and involve the use of a cathartic hammer. You can't get much better than an excuse to smash things <i>and</i> eat tasty treats.<br /><br />Life is good.
