Well, hey there. Did not post since right before Thanksgiving but I am back at it. I had talked to our elementary school principal before we left town about delivering a meal for her family today so I got up this morning ready to go. I made a dish called Cavatini. It looked and smelled delicious. I made a dish of it for my family too. Glad I did because it looked so good. Anyway, I had made my list on Saturday and went grocery shopping then for some of the items needed. This is the biggest family so far that I've taken to, with 3 adults and 2 children, so I wanted to make sure there was plenty. I had bought Romaine lettuce and tomatoes. I chopped that up and put into a gallon size bag. I made a lemon icebox pie. Easy.....I promise....nothing to it. So I had that going in the mixer while I browned my meat and boiled my pasta. Multi-tasking at its best. Oh Yeah! Next thing you know it was done so I showered, put the meal in the truck and delivered. Got another hug and I'm taking dinner to her administrative assistant tomorrow. They also have 3 adults. Hmmmmm, what to bring, what to bring? I had my husband go with me since I had a bigger dish or two. It was nice to have him along.
When we got back from Thanksgiving, I had a bag hanging from my door from the older couple. She had returned all of the dishes (she's done that before when I made her something) with a thank you note. They had not had the 5 cup salad in years so that was a treat. :) Also, in the mail, I had notes from the other two neighbors thanking us for the meal. In one note, it said, "Food is love and we thank you for it." That's a treasure right there.
I am adding to the recipes page so take a look if you're interested. Enjoy! "Food is love." That just makes me smile.
