In the past, the girls baked and sold Christmas cakes, but this year, with the help of a board member and volunteer, tried something new. They made a variety of spice blends and tea blends, which are placed in gift bags that they made of newspaper. In the first week, they had an order for 30 gift bags! They worked hard to complete the order, past their bedtime. Looks like this year will be more successful than the last. Part of their earnings will be re-invested next year, they will also go shopping for a new pair of shoes, and they will have a little for their own allowance.
