Help for Haiti

OK, folks; step up here. A couple of my fellow food bloggers are stepping away from the kitchen to help those whose have not only no kitchen, but no food or water, not to mention devastating damage and injuries, in the wake of the Haiti quake.

For the next week, comment on this post and tell me what charity you prefer to support to help the people in Haiti. I’ll donate 50 cents per comment to the most popular charity from the comments. If you’ve donated to the Haitian relief effort already, tell me that, and I’ll up my match on your behalf to a buck. (Yes, I’m trusting you to be honest about it, and if you’re not, it’s still in a good cause and those people need all the help they can get.)

So get out your checkbooks or credit cards and make your donations to the charity of your choice, let me know about it, and after noon on next Friday, my donation will be on its way as well. If you can’t afford to donate, just shout out good wishes and love and prayers to Haiti on here, and we’ll go from there.

And stop for a moment and be thankful for what we have, especially in comparison to those who are suffering so horribly this week.
