MESH Report Jan 11, 2022

It was frigid outside but warm – even hot – in the Shomrei kitchen as Chef Sarita Eisenberg prepared 20 meals with assistance from Shirley Grill and Susan Rosenblatt and special thanks to Lou Hammerman for doing the shopping.

The meal consisted of a tuna burger on a whole wheat bun with sides of roasted baby carrots and corn salad. For dessert there was a banana and clementine and various sweet treats (cookies, pastries and muffins); and there was also a granola bar for the morning.

Shirley took the lead getting the food packed to go with assistance from Susan and Sarita. A huge thank you to Susan for taking care of the clean-up.

This was my first time cooking for MESH since we closed our MESH cafe for the pandemic. It felt really good to be back in the Shomrei kitchen, although it is a bit different without our guests being there.
