We had a very efficient crew today. Very experienced MESH volunteers and packing experts, Susan Rosenblatt and Alex Kent felt like they were cheated out of their volunteer hours by finishing so early.
Lynne Tapper and chef Fern prepared the meal:
Baked Salmon with homemade Tzatziki
Cous Cous Salad made with cous cous, cucumbers, peppers, cherry tomatoes, garbanzo beans, and black olives
Huge shout out to Collin for preparing the dessert bags.
The dinner bag was additionally filled with a roll, clementine, breakfast bar and a bottle of water
Special and huge thank you to Lynne Kurzweil for delivering the dinner bags to the Office and to Liza Friedman, first time MESH volunteer, who helped greet guests and distribute meals at The Office. Liza commented “It was super easy and the women were so kind. I’m definitely going to volunteer there more.”
An amazing group of volunteers.
