Happy Mother's Day!

Can't write much...this is time that is practically sacred, but could not let Mother's Day go by without giving a shout out to all the Moms out there.

Not all superheroes wear capes!

Happy Mother's Day. :-)

Stamp Out Hunger today!

Community food banks have been hit even harder in the current economic downturn than our pantries have been.

Today is the Stamp Out Hunger community food bank drive. Donating is as easy as putting non-perishable food items in your mailbox (or in a box or paper bag under the mailbox). The postal carrier and area volunteers will pick up the donations.

Let's not punish the needy because we're feeling passive-aggressive about Monday's postage rate hike!
