 Coming in the spring of 2012...Our new book has just gone to print and will hit the stores and our online ordering page in time for spring and summer sales. The book has over 300 great recipes, themed for summer and grilling season and all proceeds will go to prostate cancer awareness, treatment and patient needs. We are still targeting to launch it in the spring of 2012, which is great timing for Father's Day gift giving!
Honoured to help Brett Wilson Dare to Care  Breast Friends were thrilled and honoured to be invited to Brett Wilson’s Garden Party on Thursday, June 21 at his beautiful home and yard in Calgary. Linda Helgason, Anne Reynolds, Val Helgason and Patti Hack represented the group.
Brett was one of the Dragons on CBC’s Dragons’ Den when we were on the show last November. An hour before the party we were able to meet and greet fellow “dragonpreneurs” and hear the stories of their businesses prior to and after “the Den”.
We got to have a look at the products and businesses Brett invested in and we all came home
with Snappy Sox for the grandkids and Kelvin tools for the husbands. This year the worthy cause that Brett chose and asked the 600-plus guests to support was Dare to Care, “a fully comprehensive approach to dealing with bullying and challenges within school communities.”  The attendees of Garden Party 2011 (along with up to $100K matching fund from Government of Alberta) raised over $300K for Dare to Care.
The next morning in true gracious Brett style, we were invited to his corporate offices for breakfast with our fellow dragon friends. It was a great 24 hours – we enjoyed the great food, great location, great company and great party. New! Weekly recipe column  The newspaper Saskatoon Express initiated the publication of a weekly favourite Breast Friends recipe, taken from one of our cookbooks, this summer. Thanks to the support and co-operation of newspaper publishers, the column now also appears in several other weekly newspapers in the province.
The columns are in PDF format for easy reading, downloading or printing. To see the list of columns to date, go to our Recipe Columns page. Cookbooks raise funds for cancer causes Breast Friends, a group of 10 "seasoned" women from Foam Lake, Saskatchewan, Canada, raise funds for cancer causes from the sale of their own self-published national best-selling cookbooks. You'll discover more than cookbooks as you peruse these very popular, comprehensive grassroots products which are sold across Canada and in many centers in the United States. Incredibly, in a few short years these unique cookbooks have generated well over $1 million dollars to cancer causes and their good work, with your help, continues. The funds raised go to support patient needs, equipment, research and prevention, and cancer agencies.
