Carmel, CA Papillon Center For Loss & Transition Offers Cooking Classes For Those Going It Alone

Losing a spouse is one of the most difficult things that a person can go through.  It's hard to pick up the pieces and try to start living a normal life again, but it's critical to rely on friends and get new hobbies if you have too much time on your hands.  It was nice to read that a local Carmel woman did so by visiting the Papillon Center for Loss & Transition in Monterey.  After meeting with others that were grieving, she decided to open her home to others and teach them to cook healthy foods for themselves.  "In bereavement, how do you eat something besides cereal and junk food at night," Joy Smith, director of Papillon, told the Carmel Pine Code.  "This conversation happens frequently and somebody suggested we need a class—Cooking for One." she said.  For more information on the classes, contact The Papillon Center.
