I have too many shoes

A night with the girls with cocktails and cupcakes, I can't think of a better way to spend time with great friends and raise money for charity.   If you read my blog then you definitely know I love cupcakes, so the Ovarian Cancer Action's Cupcake Break sounds right up my street. They're encouraging people to bake cupcakes, arrange events and share their stories on raising funds for this important cause. As well as ideas on how to host an event, there are also posters and invitations that you can download and send out to your chosen guests.  I really like the suggestion to have a chick-flick night, with cupcakes and cosmos it might be a fab way to raise funds and great fun too! To get involved visit their site .

I spotted this article in the Daily Mail (apologies but I find their online news pages a bit addictive!).  If you want a small taste of the celebrity life, you now have chance while helping raise funds for charity at the same time. A number of celebrities from Pink to Shirley Bassey have donated their footwear for an online charity auction.  Give Landmines the Boot is a campaign being run by Mag - Mines Advisory Group.  The shoes are from high street to designer and its not all for the girls, celebrities like David Walliams and Alan Shearer has made donations too! Bids can be made on ebay from 22nd July. For more information visit the Mag website
