Seeking Desserts for Int'l Food Fair 3/8


Do you like to bake? If the answer is YES…Making a dessert is an easy way to contribute to the International Food Fair on Saturday, March 8. Lorraine and Janet would welcome your submissions on Saturday morning 3/8, between 9 and 10 AM. Any baked item is fine. In the case of cookies or bars, we might parcel them out, and in the case of breads, cakes or pies, we might sell the entire item. A St. Patrick’s Day theme is great, since the fair is the week before (but not required!). Please let us know if you can help by emailing us at:


Janet Fischer, jfischer@mit.edu

Lorraine Follis, qpengy@gmail.com


On the Saturday of the event, please label your submission, and let us know if it includes nuts. We will take care of the display and pricing.


Thank you! 

Lorraine and Janet
