I enjoyed reading this blog post. I love to hear when individuals take the attention off of themselves and direct it to helping others. It really inspired me to take action and to continue helping in my community. Thanks for sharing this!

This reminds me of the story of the boy throwing starfish back into the ocean. When someone comments that there are so many – why bother to throw a few back… The boy says, “it mattered to THAT one.” I keep this motto in my mind every time I arrange a service project for my cooking students. I can’t wait for us to help even one person!

Ahh unlike most of the people I usually talk about Mischa is older. But she still likes ice cream. :)

If you come to my country, we’ll be glad to take our blankets off because it is always humid and hot. Less is more comfortable in the tropics. We dress conservatively though, so the sun won’t burn our beautiful skin. The materials we use are for easy breathing. So without knowing how it might have felt living in the tropics, you could understand what warmth means. That is growing up and you deserve a great big hug from Annie Cook for your good deed. If you come to my country, I’d buy you lots of ice cream. (Wait, how old are you Mischa?)
