and get going on it again. CCandCer’s are<br />

always ready with a helping hand, a lesson,<br />

or some advice. Each week, a different<br />

Member brings a cake―tried and true, or<br />

experimental. Babysitting is not available<br />

and there are lots of sharp objects about<br />

(pins, needles, scissors and wit) so we cannot<br />

accommodate children. Contact Suzanne<br />

Dundas at chatcraftcake@awcthehague.org<br />

for more information<br />

Heart Pillow Project<br />

Members work together to make heartshaped<br />

pillows designed to help support<br />

the arms of recent mastectomy patients.<br />

Each pillow is made with TLC, wrapped,<br />

and comes with a note signed by an <strong>AWC</strong><br />

volunteer. No sewing skills are needed, as<br />

you can cut, stuff, or wrap the heart pillows.<br />

We are proud to provide men and women<br />

with something both practical and comforting,<br />

and we know our work helps because<br />

we often receive thank-you notes and emails<br />

from the patients who have received a heart<br />

pillow. For more information, please contact<br />

Out to Lunch Bunch<br />

This month’s restaurant, recommended<br />

by Amber Gatewood, is the urban bistro<br />

MaMa Kelly (www.mama-kelly.nl), which<br />

opened its doors in 2015 in the former boiler<br />

house of the Caballero Cigarette Factory<br />

in The Hague. The high ceilings, original<br />

boilers and other references to the history<br />

of the building make MaMa Kelly a very<br />

interesting place. Lunch is served next to<br />

the big dining area: don’t forget to take a<br />

look! Expect the unexpected because MaMa<br />

Kelly specializes in lobster and chicken. Ask<br />

yourself: how often have you put your fork<br />

into half a chicken or lobster in an industrial<br />

estate on the outskirts of The Hague?<br />
