Hi,

Just wanted say THANKS for getting involved with our Breadline Africa Blogger Bake Off.

We've had alot of great support from many bloggers so far and the list keeps growing everyday.

Be sure to check out our blog and visit the BBO website from time to time. We've also got a Facebook group together and I really want to see people's bread photos on there - successful recipes are good, but flops are better :)

Keep up the good work and don't forget to keep in touch and spread the word.

Happy baking!
