This is when my Tassie friends & I visited Paris for the first time and we went to the Palace of Versailles.
Together with my friends we have raised over $1000 for Breast Cancer Research. We thank you for your generous support 💕 I’m sure you will know like I do many families who have lost loved ones and have been through such a tough time due to breast cancer. You can still donate here. I made a pledge to colour my hair pink once we reach the goal of $1000!! Check out my new hair!!
I’m cooking to help find a cure for breast cancer!
This August, I’m taking on the 3 Course Challenge to raise funds for breast cancer trials research. I want to help protect the 1 in 7 women who will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.
I’m ready to cook up the French 3 Course Challenge with Manu!!
By donating to my page, you’ll help fund clinical trials that are finding new ways to treat, prevent and ultimately cure breast cancer.
I’m sure it will be no easy feat but I’ll at least have top chef Manu Feildel to help me! I can’t wait to give it a go, have some fun and cook to help find a cure for breast cancer.
Thanks so much – I’d love for you to support me and make a donation to Breast Cancer Trials – You can still donate here until the 14th September 2020.
