Over The Top

I couldn't believe my eyes.  Monday morning I walked into our kitchen and there were these three humongous green objects on one of our carts. What in the world are these, I asked.  Our cook happen to be standing there and her reply was....squash. 

 TJ is our cook and she is an avid gardener.  One of her passions is growing vegetables.  She mixes, prepares, adds etc. to her gardens to make them the very best.  Obviously she did very well for the squash you see below.  They are called "Fuzzy Squash" and they are HUGE.  About eighteen to twenty-four inches between the three of them.  Friday's the day she is going to cook them up for our recipients.  I can't wait to see what's on the inside.  I'll keep you posted.

Friends are like family

I feel blessed to be a part of such a wonderful organization.  Of course the Meals on Wheels program is a God send for so many people.  But this time I wanted talk about our customers at the store.  Since the beginning of my time with Meals on Wheels, I  have been touched by so many people and I've developed relationships with many of our customers.  So many come because they love the thrill of the hunt and some come because they need a certain something.  What ever the reason we are so happy they come in to see us. The conversations with those who are buying for others, or the mention of an issue in their lives that is important to them becomes imortant to us.  The phrase, "please pray for me..." tells me they trust us.  That's huge in my book.    I wish I could name everyone whom we have all grown to love, but that could take while, so I'll just say thanks to all of you for being our friends.
