2-PACs sallied forth into the evening Gloom for some fellowship and a good meal. COP (FYI: this means “Circle of Pain,” as in, the PAX has to circle up, which the PAX did – Vers thought this was weird.): YHC failed to read all of the instructions while starting to cook bar-b-que. YHC asked for advice from a more experienced member of the PAX, who suggested that a quick flip of the Q to her (YHC’s M) would help, and things were quickly straightened out. With that and a ton of advice, she re-earned her FO3 designation. Someone give the…

3 PAX plus an FNG (Friendly New Gal) labored over a hot stove and a pair of hot slow cookers on Sunday. Temps were sunny and 72 (hey, the kitchen is a temperature controlled environment). 6 residents plus the center manager joined us for dinner. Beef or chicken? Hard or soft shell? Guac, salsa, sour cream, cheese? Good stuff, and YHC sends his thanks to Vers, Westminster, and Pencil (FNG) for doing the overwhelming portion of the prep. And to his M for doing most of the shopping. Good chatter all around with the 3 kiddos making some new friends…

EF Hutton and his 2.0’s Llama and BB-8 went out to have a family dinner with YHC and the fine folks over at Breaking Bread. YHC thinks nothing beats a Summertime Dinner of Fried Chicken, Side Salad, Rolls, Fresh Cut Watermelon, Banana Pudding and ice cold Sweet Tea. The only thing better than this meal were the gracious individuals we got to share it with. We all had a wonderful time of fellowship with everyone there. There is truly something special about having a meal with someone you don’t know. If you haven’t had a chance to participate in Breaking…

Two intrepid volunteers peeled, sliced, cooked, and cleaned their way through a sunny and 70 evening of Breaking Bread, NBA playoffs, and good fellowship at the Medical Respite on Belt Blvd. The drive-thru operator at the Wendy’s next door tells the tale as follows: 5:00 Set-up. Q has botched it already as he has forgotten the drinks. Water, water everywhere for everyone. 5:05 Oven heating mashed potatoes and spiral ham. 5:10 Shallots, oil, green beans, and lemon seasoning wafting throughout the building. 5:20 Plates and silverware ready to go, Kings Hawaaian rolls warmed, green beans simmering, ham sliced…let’s do this.…

YHC took some warm food over to breaking bread on Sunday afternoon….folks were very appreciative as always!  Thanks to Labrat for creating this fine program!

3 men took some time during this Christmas season to a meal a to some of those that could use some good comfort food and solid conversation. We pulled out at 5:10 with food ready to be severed. YHC had some trouble with following directly but after a quick detour to the front of the building we made our way up the stairs. We were greeted with a friendly welcome and got to work setting up. On the meal today was some chicken and dumplings, apples, mashed potatoes with gravy, salad, and finally a Richmond staple Ukrop’s cake We had…
