Bake It Forward is your chance to begin to make a difference in the world. All it takes is a few minutes to bake a batch of cookies, brownies, etc. and send them on their way. Then you can watch online as your Bake It Forward tin continues its journey, spreading confection and affection all over the world.
I love to bake. There is something all together wonderful about the smells of flour, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla all swirling together in a mixture of eggs and milk. The kneading of bread and cookie dough is the most natural stress reliever, the scents alone act as natural aromatherapy. And the finished product? Who couldn’t smile at a cookie? A fresh baked bread or a small special and singular cake made just for them. Bake It Forward packaged this love we give to our families and spread the joy of that first sweet kiss across the world and I wanted to be a part of it.
While I was trying to figure out who to send my Tin too, my best friend had emailed me to tell me that her son’s hospital bills put her under and she didn’t have the internet or a phone for awhile. Her son is disabled and last years visit to the hospital lasted the entire summer through fall and a few months ago he had to go back in for a cardiac scope. Without any assistance, they gave all the had and lost what little they had left. I knew no one else that needed a smile more than her in all the world. My sons and I made cookies on a stick, since we know her children love cookies, and packaged them up as nicely as we could in our Tin.

There are so many people that could use a brighter day.

Then that person can share the same gift with someone they know and on and on for as long as the Tins can travel.
