“I agree 100% about the ability to start fresh every day or any time of day. If I’m having a bad day, I’ll just hit reboot — take the dogs for a walk, hit the gym, or in the worst of cases, take a shower and start over. Benefits of working from home. Every day can be a great day! It’s a choice!”

“Two years ago 919Dine.com came in second place for “Best Home Service” for your Maggy Awards. I’d love to email my customers to vote for us, however there is no Best Home Service category or Best Delivery Service category for 2018. We’ve been in business since 2009, and I like to joke that we’re the best kept secret in Cary, even though we have thousands of customers and over 75 local restaurants that we deliver for. I’m confident we would easily win a best in home delivery service category.”

We had record sponsorship dollars this year, enabling us to exceed our event goal of raising $45,000. Thanks so much for supporting the Center.”

“Still trying to find the words to express our deepest gratitude to Cary Magazine! What was already a dream come true to be IN the magazine, has turned into an even BIGGER, overwhelming moment in time to find out that we got the COVER, alongside our friends The Freezing Pointe! As a local family-owned business using recipes passed down from generation to generation, to say we feel like we’re honoring those who created these recipes would be an understatement.”

“Very happy to see Slice Pie on the cover! So awesome.”

“It was very disappointing to read that the Movers and Shakers nominees had to be under 45 … When we talk about those who move, shake and shape our communities, there should truly be no upper age limit.”

“We had to move from our neighborhood in Cary, not only because the HOA didn’t allow chickens, but because our neighbors were aggressively against chickens … I don’t believe most subdivisions, especially newer developments, are ready to accept this type of sustainability. Neighborhood children, however, truly enjoyed having the birds around.”

“You wrote on OISO restaurant. Thank you. This is the best sushi ever. Young Kim is very talented with his style of preparing food and the taste is outstanding. Wow, fresh preparation and generous plus friendly. … His wife Jo Kim makes her kimchi, which is outstanding. I will not go to any other sushi house ever again.”

“WhooHooo Don Cloninger! So deserving of the cover! One of the nicest, kindest doctors that gives back to the community as well takes great care of his patients. Bravo!”

“Through your generosity, we will achieve our mission to Provide Help When It Counts for our neighbors who face immediate crises. … Thank you, friends.”

“My name is Cheri Spitz and I have been the director of Resurrection Lutheran Preschool in Cary for 30 years. I’m retiring at the end of this preschool year, but wanted to thank you for the Maggy Awards before I leave my position. We have felt very honored to have been the recipient of the Maggy Award Honorable Mention for four years … We have heard from numerous parents who have come to register here, that the Maggy Award weighed quite heavily into their decision. We also feel especially honored since we are just a small preschool and only have our parents’ votes compared with the multiple location daycares. Just wanted to let you know that RLP appreciates you!”
