“An Audience with The Queen”! Wow! I was indeed honored to have had lunch with the AMAZING Dr. Barbara L. King. She is the senior pastor of Hillside International Truth Center. Recently, I presented a “How to Become an Author” workshop at her church. She was unable to attend. A few days later, she sent an email and invited me to join her for lunch at Baltimore Crab and Seafood restaurant (http://www.baltimorecrabandseafood.com/). We had such a wonderful time! She is one of my heroes! I had an opportunity to ask her many questions about life, ministry and service. Of course, everyone knows Dr. Barbara! Most of the guests dropped by our table to greet her! At the end of our meal, we were informed that lunch was covered! We don’t know who paid for it! But THANKS SO MUCH! When you are in the Cascade area, be sure to drop by this restaurant! The cuisine is simply delectable, and the banana pudding is to heavenly! You will love the AMBIANCE too! I look forward to including it in an article in the future! It is so inviting, and everyone is so FRIENDLY! Thanks Dr. Barbara for being such a blessing to so many! May God continue to bless you as you have blessed me and countless others!

Friendship is an age-old institution that crosses boundaries of religion, culture, age, income level, and education. So it may come as a surprise that National Friendship Day wasn’t invented until the early 20th century—and only then as a way to increase sales of greeting cards.

You can plan it for several months down the line or take a spur-of-the-moment trip like me! Built in 1913, it is known as “The Grand Hotel of Indianapolis”! SPECIAL WRITER’S TIP: Book one of the Loft Suites! You kind of have your own, upscale two-story flat or apartment (without the kitchen)! You will get an enormous balcony with a spectacular city view, huge window that span two floors, upstairs private bedroom, downstairs sleeper sofa, two flat screen TVs, well-designed indoor dining area for four, a contemporary winding staircase, 1 ½ baths, Keurig coffee maker, chiller/cooling unit and so much more! If you want to invite friends over, it’s so roomy you can have a private reception downstairs and on the spacious balcony!
