Hey folks,
So, as you guys all know I really enjoy running races, training for them, and trying to beat a target. It all started with me training for a Race for Life, and I really love that runs raise so much money for charity.
Once a year I choose one event to collect sponsorship for, and this year it is the Blenheim Palace half marathon. Their chosen charity was the British Heart Foundation, and recently a family member had a few heart issues, so I chose to raise money for them.
In order to persuade my workmates to sponsor me I made some fudge for them- two huge batches of white chocolate and peanut butter fudge, and some cherry fudge.
I also made a double batch of brownies- these were chocolate brownies with a salted caramel chocolate drizzle. The drizzle was a cheat really- I had some caramel flavoured chocolate drops (Silver spoon ones) which I melted and then added a little pinch of sea salt to.
Anyway, if we had a blog staffroom then I would happily make things for all of you guys to nibble at. But, I don’t even think that 3D printers work that well yet. However, I would love it if anyone would sponsor me. So, if you do, then I promise to send you a little thank -you in the post. It will be a mystery but I promise that you will like it.
The fundraising page is here– just email me with your address once you have donated and I shall add you to my list.
Thanks so much in advance!! <3
Very good luck, a great cause xx
Just sponsored you x
Thank you x
What amazing looking goodies! Well done for signing up and for such a good cause.
Such a great cause!
Yeah it is tricky with raising money. You can’t really do it more than once a year otherwise people get fed up of giving money, or just can’t give that often. But making cakes in exchange for sponsors is a great way of doing it!
Hope it all went well! Those goodies look fab, you have lucky workmates!
Hi Maria,
