Austin Bakes for Japan TODAY

Austin Bakes for Japan will be going on at five locations in Austin today, beginning at 10 AM.

My hamentashen weren't quite as pretty as usual, so I made these shortbread cookies as well. You'll find both at the Central Austin location.

There will be vegan and gluten-free baked goods at all five sales tomorrow. Details about the sales plus pretty pictures of the baked goods can be found here: http://austinbakes.wordpress.com/
