I will address the hard fried egg posts 😜 a little later, but wanted to update on Sandwich Week.
I’m not sure why I complicate things unnecessarily, but yesterday I finally decided to keep it simple. I made 22 peanut butter & jelly sandwiches on honey wheat bread, but only bagged 20 lunches because the “end piece” sandwiches were smaller, and I put two of those in a bag lunch, instead of just one. I’m always concerned about using the end pieces since so many people turn their noses up at them, but the ends are my favorite slices and I refuse to throw them away.
One loaf of sandwiches was peanut butter and grape jelly, and the other loaf was with strawberry. Each bag contained a sandwich, cookies, a mandarin orange, and a bag of some kind of chip. My pic of the chips variety, oranges, and cookie varieties will only show up upside down, so I didn’t include.
Next, 22 ham & cheese brown bag lunches. The cheese was a Tillamook medium cheddar from Costco, and the ham was Wright smoked honey ham. Bread was whole wheat and there was mayo on each side.
Although the fridge was bare when we arrived at about 2:15 pm, I know it had been filled and emptied several times that day.
An hour later, someone posted this donation, and you can see there were still a few of our bagged lunches left, but most gone in an hour.
For the week, 22 grilled cheese sandwiches (not packed as a brown bag lunch, just bagged sandwiches placed in the community fridge), 25 breakfast sandwiches (eggs with cheese, sausage patty on biscuit) and 42 brown bag lunches. C’est fini!
My plan is to focus on my own Thanksgiving dinner today and tomorrow and maybe not cook, prepare, or think of feeding anyone until mid to late next week!
