It's that time of the year again, when a coffee and cake mid-morning will help raise money for the Cancer Council and their important work. Yep, Australia's Biggest Morning Tea is on - officially on 26 May but also throughout the month of May (and even June).

The idea is to hold a fund-raising morning tea with a group of friends, family or workmates, so that your mid-morning treat can go towards a worthy, potentially life-changing cause. Register at

This year's Australia's Biggest Morning Tea ambassadors include the one and only Adriano Zumbo, former Masterchef contestant Callum Hann, naturopath Janella Purcell and television chef Ed Halmagyi.
This year's event will be launched at 8.30am Wednesday morning, 13 April with a live cooking demonstration at Martin Place with the ambassadors and various cultural groups. Get yourself there to catch a glimpse of Adriano, Callum and the others whipping up morning tea treats.
This year the Cancer Council is aiming to raise $11 million nationally. I'm more than happy to help out, especially if it involves just gobbling a few cakes, tarts or slices - eating for a cause, my sort of thing.
Great cause.
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful charities-this is a good one.

ReplyDeleteHi Keely - No, unfortunately I had to be at work, but I saw him briefly as I was on my way! Chilly morning - I wonder if his head gets cold...? :D
ReplyDeleteI have nothing but good things to say about people who gather together and share their blessings for a good cause. It's not everyday that you get to do this but this gesture can really make a big difference to the people whom the event is dedicated to.
ReplyDeleteKeep it up!
Hi Jayson - Agreed!
