Two long-time friends, "foodies" both, a party, and a time for catching up. What's could be better than that! I actually think I have nothing more to say about this photograph. Oh... One thing. I didn't see this photo first. Dora came to me and said: "Have you seen Sylvia and Clarke sitting and talking in the hall? I hadn't so grabbed my camera, and there they were, and here they are for you.
I know these two women and time has stood still for them. Maybe it's because both are wonderful, generous people. Sylvia would give her last penny to someone in need, and Clarke gives up her own time to arrange "garage sales" with books, toys and other samples sent to Newsday for review. The proceeds from Clarke's efforts have raised thousands of dollars for the needy on Long Island. It takes a good heart and creative thinking to recognize that, with a strong effort (including recruiting volunteers to help make her sales go smoothly), others can be helped at almost no cost. They are kindred spirits and we are all better for it.
