Two “Sparkling Pink” Drink Selections
The other day some of my girlfriends got together for brunch to check out their new "pink" beverages as each "pink" drink will benefit the NBCF. We all chose the "Sparkling Pink Passion Mimosa." (A non-alcoholic "pink" beverage is also available.)
I love this time of year because they bring back "pumpkin" everything - latte, muffins, cheesecake, and of course pancakes.

“Together, Mimi’s Cafe, our guests and our teammates, have the power to help women NOW within our local communities,” said Mark Mears, President and Chief Concept Officer of Mimi’s Cafe. “Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women, and 1 in 8 will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. And while those statistics are startling and scary, there is hope. When breast cancer is detected early, in the localized stage, the 5-year survival rate is 98.6%. That is why it is important to do our part and support the National Breast Cancer Foundation with Mimi’s Power of Pink.”

ReplyDeleteA cure for breast cancer holds a very special place in my heart for many reasons. My great grandmother passed away because it was found to late. Also my aunt just finished treatment. I took her everyday for 5 weeks and saw first hand what it is like to fight this. I can only pray that one day they find a cure. Thank you for helping spread the awareness.
ReplyDeleteIt's very important as I just found out today my friend at 30 was told she has breast cancer. Never to early to check!
ReplyDeleteAs a woman and mother of a daughter, breast cancer research is very important to me.

Thanks so much for sharing your stories, Ladies. I hope they find a cure too and hope that through awareness, everyone will do their routine check-ups and catch it early. Good luck on the raffle!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Pumpkin Pancakes sounds amazing. I am always wary of the pinkification during Breast Cancer Awareness, but this sounds like a great opportunity to give back if you are eating there.
ReplyDeleteAs a women and a mother of two daughters, breast cancer research is important to me.
ReplyDeleteI have 2 friends that are breast cancer survivors.
ReplyDeleteI am a cancer survivor - thanks to research that offered me a possible cure. I want to support all cancer research to bring an end to this disease.

Such an important issue! And kind of scary the stuff I'm reading lately about environmental contributors, not to mention the toxic chemicals in our make-up, bath & body soaps, perfumes... the list goes on and on and on. It's crazy. Definitely a worthy cause and great that you have a blogging platform to help spread the word!
ReplyDeleteIt's important to me because I have several family members who have died of various types of Cancer in the last few years.
