Bowl a Line for Hospice of the Chesapeake

Gratitude to Hospice of the Chesapeake Leads to Bowling Fun

As lung cancer claimed the life of Betty Lyman, her daughter Cindy Loftus was at her side along with the compassionate and capable folks from Hospice of the Chesapeake.  As Cindy tells the story, “They were there from the first phone call to the very end.”  Whenever Cindy needed help with her mom, they were there.   Cindy admits that she can’t say enough great things about their compassion and dedication.

Her mom didn’t have insurance so her family was unable to pay anything to Hospice at the time.  That didn’t stop Hospice, and it motivated Cindy.  She’s an independent Crownsville business women.  Her business is Stitchcraft.  She turns out beautiful embroidery on all manner of garments and other items.

She may not have had the money to pay Hospice, but she had something more important – the will and the business sense.  She combined her love for her mother, her gratitude to Hospice with an idea for fun to give back. Continue reading Bowl a Line for Hospice of the Chesapeake

Old Fashioned Sweet-tooth Remedy is Gluten-free

So, you think you don’t have any dessert in the house

It was late.  One car had a flat tire.  The other car had a warning light glaring at me. The problem — a severe need for dessert and no reliable way to get to anything.  The solution had to be in the pantry.  I went back in mind to an earlier time in my sister-in-law’s kitchen.  Continue reading Old Fashioned Sweet-tooth Remedy is Gluten-free
