DESERT AIRE - Cozy Comforts of South Grant County, makers of blankets for children in crisis, will have its annual Christmas bake sale and bazaar on Saturday, Dec. 7.

The bake sale and bazaar will go from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Sagebrush Senior Center. It is located on Desert Aire Way in Desert Aire.

“There will be something for everyone,” Cozy Comforts President Diane Hanson said. “There will be plenty of ideas for Christmas.”

According to Hanson, there will be cookies of all kinds, pies, cakes, cupcakes, candy, fudge, and snack items and much more. There will be hand made quilted place mats, napkins, crocheted dishcloths, tote bags, gift bags, fleece blankets, and much more.

“Also, don't forget the lunch of hot chicken soup, crackers and dessert,” Hanson said. “The popular Granny Table will be loaded with one-of-a-kind, just gotta have it, bargains.”

The raffle prizes will include a Christmas quilt, donations from local businesses, and more items still coming in. There will be several bottles of wine from Milbrandt Vineyards.

Again this year there will be a silent auction. Items will include a car afghan, outdoor fire pit from Marty's Hardware, several other unique afghans, and much, much more.

“Lots of good Christmas gifts,” Hanson said.

Cozy Comforts will be selling raffle tickets, at $1 each for a basket that includes a gift card, a Christmas quilt, wine and many more items.

Cozy Comforts volunteers have created afghans, quilts and fleece blankets for children in need of a blanket hug over the last six years. They depend entirely on the generosity of individuals, corporations and local companies to help carry out this much-needed mission.

“We would love to see you at the sale,” Hanson said.
