I'm feeling a bit guilty for not having managed to update the blog recently. It would be good to say that's because I've been busy planning my next events, which is partly true, but largely it's because I've had a long stint of drunken nights out followed by extreme, debilitating tiredness the next day!
Anyway, I've been sober for a few days so have finally managed to do something productive with my time. I've booked an Ethiopian dinner for Thursday 29th March in London, drummed up some interest for my Cupcakes & Cosmo's event and started pestering people for raffle prize donations for my next Madras for Cash on Saturday 31st March at Sizzler restaurant, Leighton Buzzard. I'm still working out the details but will, of course, post them soon on here and Facey/Twitter for info as well as emailing to my contacts. If you want to register your interest in the meantime you can message me via the blog or on Facebook/emcupcakes or Twitter @emcupcakes.
I've also had a couple of baking commissions recently, the latest being lemon & raspberry muffins which I got up at 6am to make for my gorgeous & lovely friend Emma to take to a Hen Do. She's been very supportive of all my efforts so far so I didn't mind getting out of bed so early (for me at least)! It was difficult to resists the temptation to eat one on my way to work this morning though!
I'm also really chuffed that in the last week I've managed to work out how to put a Paypal button on my blog so that people can make donations directly to me (which I will then pay into Justgiving) and also book places on my events, cutting out the need for me to act as banker/accounts ledger etc., particularly helpful when drunk & disorderly and trying to run an event! This whole charity challenge/blogging thing is such a great learning curve!
