Lincoln "bake sales"

Every now and then at school there are bake sales to raise money for charities. I was excited to see what kind of tropical Nicaraguan home-made sweets would be for sale. To my disappointment what I found at the "bake sale" was individual packs of crackers, cookies and candies, along with some hi-C! It is amazing to me with all the stay-at-home moms and maids that these children have that no one brought anything that is actually baked. I wonder why they even continue to call it a bake sale, they should call it a vending machine sale, or something like that.
