FEED THE HUNGRY

A couple of weeks ago I read an article in the paper about people who worked all year making bowls for a project called Feed The Hungry It showed a person bending over the wheel making a bowl.

Carrie called later on and mentioned it and we thought it might be an interesting event

to take in.

Sooooo, Friday I went to Dobson and caught the light rail and met Carrie down at the train stop and we walked aways north to this place called "The Grotto"

Nestled down between many tall buildings and terraced nicely.

There we found the event going on. Already there were alot of people mulling around I would say about ten or twelve tables

covered with all these bowls made during the year. Some were quite pretty, others plain, some interesting. Boxes and Boxes more on hand to give out.

I must have been hungry..( I just liked them) I got three. We did eventually use them all.

The deal is you pay $12 for each bowl and then they give you a serving of ....it happened to be pasta with chicken or pasta with shrimp. some years I guess it has been soup,,,etc. Anyway your serving is about 500 calories, what they figure a homeless person gets per day.

Scott met us down there on his lunch hour and we visited a while, he returned to work, then Doug picked us up, took me to my car on Dobson and I was off to home.

All in all an interesting day.
