If I were you-weekend of January 29th

My "If I were you" event for the weekend of January 29th is:

The Cookies w/o Borders Bake Sale happening on Sunday, January 31st to support Doctor's w/o Borders and their relief efforts in Haiti.

What: Cookies Without Borders
Where: Scoop's Ice Gelato 712 N. Heliotrope LA, CA 90029
When: Sunday, January 31 from 2:pm-5:pm

You may know this event in its previous incarnation the yearly event "No Cookie Left Behind" organized by a great philanthropic blogger and the owner of Scoops , Tai Kim. No Cookie Left Behind was started three years ago to eradicate child hunger. (You can check out their list of volunteer bakers, which is a who's who of independent local bakers in Los Angeles, support them in their philanthropic off times too)

If you have been wondering how you can help the survivors of the Haiti earthquake earlier this month, this is your event. Sometimes you can be overwhelmed by the options of where to donate especially with all of the sites created just for this one catastrophic event. Doctors Without Borders is a fantastic organization check out their website.

My last two recommendations are get their early and buy a cupcake for $25, you do not know how good that tastes.
