Celebrating One Year During Pandemic
My wife and I were married in April of 2019. We live just outside the greater Seattle area which was hit fairly hard by COVID-19. Following the state's "Stay-at-home" order, we celebrated our first wedding anniversary at home with the traditional eating of the cake(or cupcakes in our case) a year later. As you would expect, the cake tastes nothing like it did the first time we shared it but it gave us an opportunity to reminisce on our wedding day. While we couldn't celebrate the way we would have liked, we still laughed, ate a terrible cake, and made lasting memories. -

Seattle-area Sikh community leans on core values to help those in need during coronavirus pandemic
The article describes how a Seattle Sikh community drawing upon its religions core values has come to the aid of city since the rise of the current pandemic. This local Sikh chapter operates a community kitchen and has teamed up with other local partners to expand their reach since the outbreak. While they have always been in the business of helping the less fortunate, they have now begun to serve a whole line of others to include local medical workers and the elderly during this crisis.
