One Tiny Hat at a Time/ by Amy Richardson, Marketing
The Cuoco team recently had a heartwarming experience at the wonderful Fisher House. Fisher House is “home away from home” for families of Veterans who are receiving care at VA Puget Sound Health Care Systems. Guests can be near their loved ones while having a comfortable, peaceful place to find rest and support for themselves. More than just a convenient and beautiful place to stay, the guests of Fisher House share common experience, form friendships, and become a unique family.
When we toured Fisher House, we met two lovely and positively exuberant, cheerful, and high spirited gals, Lorraine and Cecile, who run Fisher House and wear many hats. Yes, we mean actual hats- teeny tiny hats indeed! Why the tiny hats? Well, they said, how can you not be cheerful while wearing a wee little hat? They wear them every single day at work to spread the fun. We can speak from experience- the humor and warmth is addictive from bitsy top hats to itsy feathered hats to bedazzled hats galore. The hats all hang in Lorraine and Cecile’s office for everyone to admire and adore!
Our team at Cuoco wanted to create a special night for these families in need of some pampering. What’s more comforting than piles and piles of handmade pasta? Chef Stuart taught us how to make tagliatelle. Jesse and Jasper made treats of grapefruit soda and savory bomboloni. Meanwhile, Patty (Cuoco’s GM) and the team set the dining room for a three course family style dinner- all while wearing teeny chefs hats- of course!
We had so much fun together at Fisher House that we can’t wait to visit our friends again! As the holidays near, we hope that everyone shares in the season of giving- One tiny hat at a time!
