L.I.T.s Visit the Food Shelf

Hello Blog world!

Today our LIT group visited a food shelf at Northeast Lutheran Church. The LITs have been to the food shelf for the last few weeks. The church is not far from Sheridan, and since the weather is a lot warmer (even if it is rainy) our group decided to walk over to Northeast. Some of the youth didn't want to get drizzled on, so they decided to improvise some rain gear:
Our youth helped pack up some items into bags for the food shelf

Then they set them out

Check out the produce available at the food shelf!Our youth also got a chance to meet with the manager of the East Side Food Co-Op. She brought a bunch of food from the co-op to cook with our youth. She brought some different types of roasted vegetables for our youth to sample. There were a few different types of beets, and some other veggies:
Today they got to cook breakfast and lunch. For breakfast, they made delicious scrambled eggs. They started by sauteeing some onions, green peppers and mushrooms

Cracked some eggs

and grated cheeselots of cheese And, yes, sometimes you have to taste it. Just to make sure it's all good!
And for lunch? Quesadillas! Two kinds. One with beans and cheese and one with red lentils and cheese. With full bellies, people got a little goofy...

What an awesome trip to the food shelf! Thank you to our friends at the East Side Food Co-Op!
