paying it forward: Paying it Forward....a Meal at a Time

Thank you @Belinda Spillman a contest that may give each of us ideas on how we can help others by illustrating just how we do that in our own communities. Giving to us, isn't a season....and we don't believe it should be for anyone. There is a need to extend kindness to others all year long. Besides real estate, another passion we both have is cooking....and we put it to "work" as often as we can for a variety of people. There are different places to contribute food year 'round whether it is the annual drive from … (14 comments)
paying it forward: Paying Forward Consciousness...Live it in Every Season
- 11/30/16 04:56 AM
We believe that "paying it forward" is not a seasonal effort...it is a mindset. There are givers ....and takers...and we believe that we are "heart first" people....and that is where our lives and practice are rooted. Our alternate passion (besides real estate) is cooking....we love it ! Rarely from "a book"...with inspiration from the Farmer's market, the pantry...or just because...a recipe is rarely repeated in exact ingredient proportions. Before my Grandmother passed away...she gave me her cookbook full of treasured family favorites. I never opened it until after she was good. Examples of directions are..."Bake until done...Add just … (12 comments)
paying it forward: Pay it Forward....by Example
- 05/02/11 12:40 AM
It warms my heart,to learn what leading by example can do to make the world just a little better place. Sometimes, people just need to be shown how easy it is to reach out and touch the people who are most in need of our help. Sometimes, the people who offer help are those you would feel are the least in a position financially, but give because whatever their financial circumstances, they know someone has a worse lot in life...someone else is missing meals, denying themselves medical care and making decisions no one should be forced to make. It is … (7 comments)

We all know someone who may be recovering from....has to have surgery on...may have lost a job...or just has a tighter than usual budget this holiday season for a variety of reasons. We have done this....and continue to do it...and know that you will too...you just haven't thought of it yet...and so here it is...it costs you nothing but time and warms the holiday hearts and brings smiles to the faces of young and old this holiday season. Whether you choose to hang a wreath, decorate a lampost, wrap up a mailbox...offer to put up decorations for someone … (13 comments)
paying it forward: Why not YOUR HOME for the Holidays.....Feed it Forward...

It is easier than ever to be a little thoughtful....these days in some places things are a little harder than they have been in years gone by. It would seem that there are more divorces...some people are less able to travel with less or no time away from work...or no work to have time away from.... We know that you know someone who is....recently separated, widowed or divorced, has family that lives too far away to come home for Thanksgiving....may not have the financial means to celebrate with all the trimmings....needs to be a welcome guest with friendly people. … (20 comments)
paying it forward: Tastefully Paying it Forward

It seems that we always have sellers who are single or elderly and don't spend a lot of time in the kitchen when it means cooking for one or two people...seems like too much trouble. This week we have sellers and a future seller who have just completed hospital stays...and not quite feeling up to a lot of food preparation. Our alternate stress relieving passion is cooking....and off we went to see what the "treat" would be for treating our sellers who have been the greatest in getting their homes ready for the market, being cooperative with showings and … (13 comments)
