I recently reached out to our Dishers via Facebook in search of a ‘Featured Disher’ for our February e-newsletter. This response, from Anne Smith, who dishes at our Timonium, MD location, caught my eye. In light of Valentine’s day coming up, I loved hearing that Anne and her husband often dish together to get in [...]

To kick-off last year’s Teacher of the Year awards, I blogged about my most memorable teacher growing up – Miss Shoemaker. So, this year (our 4th annual!), I asked the Let’s Dish! team to take a trip down memory lane and remember their teacher who was most inspirational: I’ll never forget my Freshman English teacher, [...]

Our Happy Hour last Wednesday was the perfect way to commemorate our 5th anniversary of dishing in Virginia. While the weather wasn’t in our favor (100+ degrees and humid!), the store was full of smiles, chatter, and the fantastic smell of our new Roasted Java Pork Tenderloin roasting in the oven. Thanks to all who [...]
It seems like just yesterday that we were one day from opening and I was standing at the door of Dominion Virginia Power’s main office begging them to turn power on to the shopping center. It was August 2005, and we were the first tenant to open in the Cameron Chase Shopping Center in Ashburn. [...]
A few weeks ago, we wrote posted a letter that we received from Dave Abel, a brother of the UVA Chi Psi Fraternity, that described a truly heartwarming story of brotherly love. We weren’t the only ones who thought it was newsworthy. Earlier this week, the Charlottesville Daily Progress picked up the story… and included [...]
We’re all so busy these days with our careers, children and countless items on our to do lists. Sure, Let’s Dish! helps by providing a healthy, quick dinner even on those crazy nights, but, let’s face it, it truly takes a village to navigate through daily life…complete with neighbors who care. It amazes me that [...]
With your support in Operation Feed Haiti, we were able to donate $1000 to the American Red Cross relief efforts in Haiti. As a small, family-run company, we truly couldn’t have done it without your help. I want to share with you this message from the American Red Cross:
Collapsed government buildings. Damaged hospitals. As many as 3 million people affected. The news of the Haiti earthquake disaster hit all of us hard at Let’s Dish! (as I’m sure it did to you and your family). Yesterday was filled with checking CNN for updates, googling statistics and asking, “How can we help?” Beyond getting [...]
We’re always mentioning that Let’s Dish! is a great solution for families, and we’re delighted that A Parent in Silver Spring (a funny, parenting blog written by Silver Spring mom and freelance writer, Jessica McFadden) agrees! On her latest blog post, Jessica writes, “After all that Thanksgiving cooking you’re doing today and tomorrow…wouldn’t is be [...]
