Cooking at Camp, the Y and the Library
This has been a busy week. I sometimes have busy weeks, but this one was exceptional. Lots of fun though!
My sister and nephew arrived Saturday, camp started Monday which is why my sister and nephew came so they knew this was a working week for me.
Monday in addition to cooking class, I had my monthly class at the Y. I teach in the senior center and I have 14 to 18 regulars each month. This month's theme was Stone Fruits and I made Plum Crisp, Cornmeal Coated Chicken with Peach Salsa and Nectarine Salad. I get there at 6:00 pm for prep, the class is 7 to 8 and leave about 8:30 after cleaning up. I love this class! Everyone has fun, asks questions and enjoys the food.
Tuesday was the library program in Jackson, Georgia. This was a little bit of a drive but we didn't run into any traffic traumas and didn't get lost so all was well. Of course my family came with me, they had never been to Jackson!
We had a great time. I did Quick, Healthy Meals for Teens and had a pretty big crowd. The teens were a little hesitant to volunteer to help at first, but once one person came to help, the rest were eager. I have pictures thanks to my sister.
In addition to the teens that attended the party, there were 2 college students who have received scholarships from the library. To repay the scholarships the students give 30 hours of service to the library. A great deal!
I need to get ready for camp now. Yesterday was the competition and there are pictures. Today we'll feed friends and family.
Our judges for yesterday enjoying their cocktail (no alcohol!).
