As you probably know, Mal and I are training for the P.F. Chang’s Rock ”˜N’ Roll Marathon in January with Team In Training. We’ve already raised $6,500 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (thanks to many of you!), but we know we can do better. Our goal is $8,000!!

I hope your sweet tooth is ready! Listed below are a bunch of delicious treats, contributed by CNC readers, which are ready to be bid on and shipped straight to you to enjoy!
