Tell Us Your Good Deed

“I am going to learn to make bread tomorrow. So you may imagine me with my sleeves rolled up, mixing flour, milk, [baking soda], etc., with a deal of grace. I advise you if you don't know how to make the staff of life to learn with dispatch.” (Emily Dickinson, American poet 1830-1886) I’ve baked hundreds of loaves of bread for fundraisers, folks who are grieving or celebrating, or to say thank you for someone’s help. Bon appétit!

Why are you participating?

Because I promised – and I always try to keep my promises (even if it takes a long time).

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I am a 93-year-old native of North Carolina, and am a life-long democrat. At my age it's hard to get out and help others, but I've always tried to be kind to everyone. In my day, I helped with a lot of church functions and helped to raise my granddaughter.
