  • Annual Birthday Breaking Bread

    For the last few years, YHC has decided to give back during his birthday week (46th birthday was on the 22nd, btw!) This year, 8 fine people were served Minced Pork BBQ sandwiches, cole slaw, hot mac-n-cheese, pototoe salad, cupcakes and tea. All were most appreciative. One resident asked for seconds but was shutdown by the lady in charge because of his blood sugar levels! He wasn’t too happy.

    This is one one my family’s favorite things to do and one of F3RVA’s most important.

    BE THE LIGHT!!

    Tomorrow, EF Hutton has the honors. F3RVA is filling them up this weekend.

    Sign up! There are plenty of spots left in 2023.

    SYITG!

  • Famous Recipe for Breaking Bread

    YHC enlisted the services of Lee’s Famous Recipe Chicken to provide some comfort food for the good folks at Daily Planet on this hot July afternoon. A meal of classic fried chicken, green beans, mashed potatoes, buttered corn, cookies from Publix and a couple jugs of fresh brewed tea were dropped off with a smile and received with warm appreciation. It feels good to share.

  • Breaking bread – it’s hot y’all.

    Oyster and Heist’s wife put together a feast for the good folks at Daily Planet. Here is how it went down:

    My M made sauce from scratch, browned the beef, and made layer by layer of Italian goodness.

    Oyster made the meal come together with salad, homemade cookies, and some tea.

     

  • Cajun Pasta for Breaking Bread

    For the Sunday evening meal, YHC decided to do the classic cajun pasta with chicken and polska kielbasa. Made a salad with two dressing choices(croutons on the side), Sourdough garlic bread and chocolate chip cookies for dessert.

    This is a fun meal to make and was glad to get this to the group today. Arrived at 5:25 and the they were ready to eat…honored to make this meal.

  • Riders on the Storm

    One of my daughters and I put together a meal for Saturday Breaking Bread. It consisted of barbeque grilled chicken, baked mini potatoes, salad and brownies. My daughter happens to have a learner’s permit so I said “Why don’t you drive to BB? Little did we know that we will heading down there right after a big storm left massive puddles on the roads. Even though no experience navigating the city part of Southside and massive puddles, she did a darn good job. She may have splashed a couple of diners in Westover Hills but better that than an accident.

    In terms of the food delivery, we were unfortunately unable to stay with the guests but Barbara was very kind and appreciative. I hopefully am teaching a lesson to my 2.0 about using your time and talents for those who are struggling. Here is a picture of our food in the kitchen.

    Happy to serve.

  • Mr. Rogers, we really should coordinate next time

    With the menu all planned out and all the ingredients bought for dinner for our friends at the Daily Planet on Sunday night, I was ready to cook up the meal for 10: Baked Spaghetti, caesar salad, bread, and cookies for dessert. Then I happened to see Mr Roger’s backblast from what he brought the night before: Baked Spaghetti, caesar salad, bread, and cookies for dessert. I guess great minds think alike?

    Anyway, Oyster said it was no big deal, so one of my 2.0s and I brought the meal and it was joyfully welcomed despite the repetitive menu. If they were sick of baked spaghetti, they didn’t let on.

    This is a great way we can quietly serve, and a great way to include your 2.0s. Thanks Oyster for coordinating and Upchuck for leading it all those years.

  • Breaking Bread – Memorial Day Edition

    This one was totally done by the M (her name is of course Mrs. Rogers). She whipped up some Baked Spaghetti for 10, with a big ol’ batch of buttered rolls, some Caesar Salad and enough assorted cookies to put you into a diabetic coma. She’s a keeper!

    We dropped off the goods and hit the town for date night. Tip: Date your wife or someone else will.

    If anyone is contemplating taking on this 3rd F activity, Oyster will totally hook you up with detailed instructions – which makes it super easy (as does your M jumping in and doing everything).

    I hope yall are enjoying your Memorial Day Holiday!

  • Breaking Bread Metaphorically

    YHC and 2.0s cooked up pork tenderloin, mixed up some pasta salad, and whipped up some perfectly set banana pudding. YHC’s attempts to deliver good tidings, cheer, and some perfectly timed dad jokes were met with some resistance, so the food was dropped and on our way YHC and PAX went. There was no breaking, nor any bread, but you get the picture. IB volunteer hours were also completed.

  • Comfort Foods

    The 2.0 and I had a great time together preparing the meal for Saturday’s Breaking Bread. It is such an honor to bring a meal for everyone; one of my most favorite things to do with F3. Glad my 2.0 likes to participate as much as I do.

    Breaking Bread is the last weekend of the month. It’s on the Q sheet, sign up and I promise you the 2.0 will equally enjoy it.

  • Southside Italian Night

    YHC and his 2.0’s had the honor of preparing a dinner for 10 of Southsides finest gents. Based on the menu organized by my daughter and shopping performed by my son, this is what was on the menu for Sunday night feast.

    Ceasar Salad with all the fixins

    Lasagna with Italian Sausage and Garlic Bread/Rolls (choice of either)

    Brownies, Cookies and Ice Cream for Desert

    Ice Tea, Lemonade (both original and raspberry)

    Meal was delivered and placed in the Southside Health Center. Really nice facility and it was a pleasure to meet Shandra who helped us set everything up. Gentlemen were out enjoying the day in the back and were very grateful for the meal. Really nice facility and it was great preparing this with the family.

    Encourage everyone to participate in this easy project that is fulfilling and inclusive with other family members. Great laughs and conversation throughout the day in preparation of the meal. Look forward to participating again soon.
