I hate using the blog as a platform for selling anything, etc., but I wanted to let you all know that I have registered for the Race for the Cure here in Cleveland. The race is September 12.
Between now and then, I’d really like to see what I could do to raise some money for this incredible organization. If you are interested in showing your support (ANY monetary amount goes such a long way!) please visit my unique URL, http://race.komenneohio.org/goto/thedailybalance
I really appreciate any and all support, as does the Komen Organization. Curious as to where your money goes? Check out the Web site for more information.
Some facts:
- Approximately 182,800 new cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed in 2000.
- Approximately 42,200deaths occured in women from breast cancer in 2000.
- One in eight women or 12.6% of all women will get breast cancer in her lifetime.
- Breast cancer risk increases with age and every woman is at risk.
- Every 13 minutes a woman dies of breast cancer.
To show my appreciation for you generosity, I’ll pick one donater at random after the race is complete. At that time I will send you goody box, filled with yummy treats, coupons and other fun stuff!

Don’t know if this is an option, and it may be sort of trite but considering your love of cooking and your healthy baking powers, why not have a bake for the cure bakesale to raise some money? just a thought.
