Homemade Marguerita Tortilla Chips

I had just made some homemade hummus and had nothing to dip into it-whole wheat bread just doesn’t cut it. What I did have were some cheap corn tortillas; the kind that come about 100 to a stack in a plastic bag not the fancy 10 to a pack things. The corn is very fine in [...]

Crownsville’s Crown Hair for your Crown

My friend Neville Gardner is a real inspiration. She’s full of energy. She runs. She’s done a marathon. She plays tennis. She rides her bike. We work together, and she always pulls her “look” together. Her hair has always looked great. This last year, though, it’s looked even better than usual, and with good reason. Continue reading Crownsville’s Crown Hair for your Crown

Crunchy Fish Tacos at Home with Gluten-free Option

The first time I heard about fish tacos, my reaction was — why? I just couldn’t reconcile the fish taste, and what I considered taco taste. I have since learned better. A crispy fish filet with just the right sauce and crunchy slaw on a fresh, and I am happy. I am happier now that I’ve figured out how to make them at home. It’s easy.

100-1 Chance at 2 goods– a good deal and a good deed!

Crownsville: Emilia Poiter has found her niche. I first met this director of development for the YWCA of Annapolis and Anne Arundel County more years ago than either of us may want to admit. I was the development director at Indian Creek School, and she was every development director’s dream volunteer. Bright, enthusiastic, and focused on the school’s needs, she threw her boundless energy and talent behind projects that helped the students help others in the community. Now, she’s giving you the chance to do the same, 100-1 to get two great results for the price of a single ticket. Continue reading 100-1 Chance at 2 goods– a good deal and a good deed!
