From Captain Sarita Eisenberg:

Yasher koach to our preschool parents! This was the first of four MESH cafes involving our preschool parents. Bridget Placek is coordinating that effort. Melissa Elbaum was scheduled to be head chef but unfortunately was sick and unable to come. Robin Hobart was assistant chef. Josh and Jessica Kline contributed the salad course.

IMG_1378We served 24 guests. The meal started with sushi, repurposed from the dinner on Saturday night. Next course was salad and bread. Main course was roasted chicken in a mustard lemon sauce, rice, and mixed veggies. For desert, there was fruit and hamantaschen.  The rice, veggies, and fruiwere also repurposed from Saturday’s dinner.

IMG_1381Thank you to Lynne Kurzweill for filling in as head chef, to servers and kitchen assistants Robert Faulkner, Lou Hammerman, & Susan Rosenblatt, and to Montclair State intern Veronica Golaszewski. We also had a wonderful group of teen helpers – Shomrei teens Amalia, Siona, & Davida and Montclair High School teens Eva, Josie, & Khari. I want to especially acknowledge Amalia, who knocked out Lou to do most of the washing. MESH staffers, Adrienne & Bonnie, were their usual busy selves – they make it very easy to be captain.

Regards,
Sarita
