Buy Your Thanksgiving Pie and Help a Neighbor in Need

Today is the final day of Food & Friends’ annual Thanksgiving pie sale and fundraiser, Slice of Life.

Each pie purchased through Slice of Life provides one full day of nutritious meals for a Food & Friends client — Washington area neighbors battling cancer, HIV/AIDS, or other serious illnesses.

Pies are available in five delicious flavors: Homemade Apple, Spiced Pumpkin, Oh So Sweet Potato, Nutty Pecan and the American Airlines Sky Pie (Salted Caramel Brownie). Pie prices start at $28 and the American Airlines Sky Pie includes an entry to win 25,000 American Airlines AAdvantage® Miles.

Pre-purchased pies can be picked up on Tuesday, November 26 at 32 convenient locations throughout the D.C. area.

Baguette Republic, a traditional wholesale bakery located in Sterling, Virginia, will bake the pies again this year. All pies are 9″ rounds and packaged in a sturdy, gift-quality box. Purchasers also have the opportunity to donate a pie to a Food & Friends client, to be delivered by volunteers on Thanksgiving Day along with a full turkey dinner.

Community members throughout the area who face remarkable health challenges depend on Food & Friends for their meals, six days a week. Food & Friends’ staff and volunteers will deliver more than one million meals this year. Place an order at www.foodandfriends.org/pie or call (202) 269-6883 to help Food & Friends bring holiday cheer to those who need it the most.

Pie sales close on Thursday, November 21 and are available at www.foodandfriends.org/pie.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
