Congratulations! Such a great cause.
I'm so anxious waiting for the results! I hope I won! But at the same time, it would be great if someone bidded higher then me as it means more for the cause.

This is great to hear. I wonder if any of my readers bid or won. Hopefully they'll let me know if they did.

While we don't want there to ever be a need for such a fund raiser again, perhaps if one is needed the online auction programs will work better. I think that would have made things much easier over all.

So pleased to read it was such a huge success, thank you for having such a generous heart and then acting on it. You inspire me, maybe I could host a homeless online bake for Sydney.
