Snow and Savory Smells are in the Air
Even though the snow has melted the past few days, we had a streak of chilly, snowy, icy weather at the end of last week. The lake was quite the sight!
But, I have been doing quite a bit of cooking to keep me warm. I cooked my first meal at the Emmaus Soup Kitchen last week. Lasagna for 200! Plus, homemade bread. What a delight to see everyone enjoying the meal!
And then, on Sunday, it was another evening of Mindful Eating—Bread for the World edition. We enjoyed our recently deceased Sister Irene’s famous dill bread, with a few mindful changes (some whole wheat flour in place of all-purpose), feasted on naan with chicken (or chickpea for vegetarians) curry, and snacked on cinnamon sugar tortillas with our canned peaches from our September meal for dessert. All along with some education on anti-inflammatory foods from our nurse and nutritionist, it was another wonderful gathering.
That’s how I am getting through the winter months—food!
Let us walk in the holy presence.
