Thursday Lunch crowd.

Lynn and Laura setting up deserts

and Clowning for the camera in the kitchen.

This picture and next picture were taken before they knew the camera was there.  They work really hard to make everything taste and look good for our diners.

Folks chatting and waiting for lunch.

 I am again at the Mills County Community Center.  I am a volunteer here, but I enjoy the folks here too.  This week is early voting week and that means no fun stuff happening.  Bingo has been postponed for a while and so has chair areobics.  But  lunch still happens every day.   Yesterday was a Thanksgiving meal with Sweet Potatoes and stuffing, and Chicken breasts instead of Turkey, but it was great food.   We fed 40  folks in the Community Center, and another 20 or so meals were delivered.   Pecan pie and Ice Cream for desert.

I was a little busy so I didn't get any pictures yesterday.  There will be pictures from the DID ranch in the second half of this post.   I will get some pictures of the folks that come to lunch today and tomorrow and will post those. I really enjoy this place, it makes my time off work bearable.  I do get to wash a lot of dishes, mostly pots and pans.  There is a dishwasher for plates, silverware, cups and glasses.  Everything gets pre washed though.  Preperation is a lot of work, setting up the Meals on Wheels meals is a lot of work, but there are about 4 or 5 of us volunteers so it goes pretty fast.  I am typing this part of the post during the break between packing cold stuff (desserts, milk and salads today) and boxing hot stuff.  That is almost ready to happen.  Time to go wash my hands.  

Well all the meals are prepared and I got some pictures too.  Lynn and Laura dishing out Ice Cream and clowning for the camera, and the others are of folks waiting for lunch to get ready.

We fed about 60 folks today counting the meals for wheels folks.  Lots of work and fun too.

This is the results of the work on the deserts for today. Apple Cobbler and Ice Cream

Now for a few pics from the Ranch this week.  Eyore the Donkey likes me, and so do Ziggy and Getta (pronounced like it is spelled)  and for the same reason.

Thanks to everyone that has read these posts this week.  More than a hundred views.  Comments are welcomed especially if you have suggestions for things I should talk about.
