Does every one know about the Christchurch baking Army. Go to the facebook page. This was started by Chrislynn a Canterbury university student to help others after the February earth quake.& now helping after the June quake. A great way for everyone who loves bakng to help the folks in the hardest hit areas in the East, eg Avondale. i know they would very much appreciate any support from any where in New Zealand

Baking suggestions include anything that can be packed easily by us into snap lock bags, Slices, biscuits, loaves, cakes, sausage rolls, small pies, gingerbread men for the children.Soup is great,put into small containers for single/ family portions.. This is an ongoing project. Please be aware that the Avondale RdBridge will be closed for urgent repairs from 6am this Sunday for 24hrs. You would need to come up from Breezes road. Thanks for your interest, the more bakers the more folks receive The baking Army's help
No worries calista :) Just wanted to add - this isthe latest update from their fb page if anyone can help ...
UPDATE on AVONDALE: There is a need for single n double meals that can be frozen.This includes savouries , pies , quiches, fritters, fresh fruit & gingerbread men. (Aiming for this W.E) There is also a need for meals delivered warm into portions of 1,2 or family size there is a large demand. Once again many thanks for those who chose to be generous to this emotional suburb.-Vicki Scott
