La Central Bakery

Sometimes its about something other than Vegetables . Today we had our Volunteer day at LaSalle Square . We had a great day thanks to the people that showed up to help out . Sarah , Lareen , Jeff , Brian , and Many more . We planted Corn , Watermelon , Pumpkins , and much more . But the find of the day for me was my trip out to find donuts for the volunteers . I think I passed La Central Bakery on Western & Dundee St . a hundred times , but never stopped . Now I think I will be a regular . All Kinds of Pastries just 50 or 60 cents . Nice find .
