Style Magazine - October - El Dorado County Foothills - 2021
No matter what type of good or service you're seeking (preschool, plumber, personal trainer, or a solid slice of pizza…), you’ve opened the right reading material. This issue, our biggest of the year, features the 2021 Readers’ Choice Award winners—the best our region has to offer in health, wellness, food, drink, home goods, arts, culture, shopping, and more. Turn to page 35 to find out if your favorite people and places made the list and use it as a pre-screened, reliable resource the next time you’re seeking a top doctor or memorable meal out. Besides the “Best of 2021,” we also delve deep into the spooky but oh-so scrumptious season of ghosts, goblins, and gourds in The 10 Spot (“Celebrate Halloween”; page 16), Editor’s Picks (“12 Autumn Essentials”; page 42), and Taste (“Must-Try Fall Foods”; page 62); introduce you to 5 local breast cancer organizations in “Fight Like a Girl” (page 20); and talk about the importance of home staging when it comes to selling your home in “Seal the Deal” (page 48).

Images of Hope <strong>El</strong> <strong>Dorado</strong> aims<br />
2 to promote cancer awareness and<br />
coordinate activities, events, and<br />
ongoing support for <strong>El</strong> <strong>Dorado</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />
residents. The all-volunteer organization<br />
operates under the umbrella of the<br />
Marshall Foundation for Community<br />
Health and provides a connection<br />
between art therapy and support<br />
services to aid in the healing process for<br />
those impacted by cancer. Their classes<br />
include mindfulness, knitting, Pilates,<br />
painting, and more.<br />
Look out for their Pink in the Night<br />
event this month, which will envelop<br />
wineries in Placerville, <strong>El</strong> <strong>Dorado</strong>,<br />
Diamond Springs, and neighboring<br />
areas in pink lights. There’s also an art<br />
installation at Placerville’s Bell Tower<br />
showcasing colors of all the cancer<br />
ribbons as a reminder to complete<br />
your cancer screenings, while the<br />
pink lights are a reminder to all<br />
women to get their mammograms.<br />

Carrie’s Touch has a simple<br />
3 mission: to save more African<br />
American women and humanize<br />
them and their experiences with breast<br />
cancer. They do this through awareness<br />
and education—including teaching<br />
young girls how to do a proper breast<br />
self-exam, advocacy, community<br />
outreach, support groups, basic needs,<br />
and home visits.<br />
A couple of special events planned<br />
for this month include Survivors’<br />
Sunday on <strong>October</strong> 10 where breast<br />
cancer survivors are celebrated<br />
and women who’ve gone before us<br />
are honored in a day of worship<br />
at Sacramento’s Center of Praise<br />
Ministries (in-person or virtual). Their<br />
Celebration of Life event on <strong>October</strong><br />
16 will felicitate women (selected<br />
randomly) who’ve undergone treatment<br />
for breast cancer by delivering flowers<br />
to them. carriestouch.org<br />
