Zen and the art of washing-up!

Went to Foodcycle today for the first time this year, but this time did the afternoon shift. From now on I shall be doing alternative shifts, morning one week and the afternoon the next, unless for some reason I can't do one of them. Apart from preparing the food some of us also befriend the people who come to eat. Some of them probably don't get much of a chance to talk to people who will listen. Today, we had a homeless person, and if what she says is true, she has had a colourful life and is well educated.

Today we had a thin vegetable soup, roast vegetables and a choice of two cakes for dessert. I had seconds and also took some away with me as there was quite a lot left over. Most of my work today was washing up, which I don't mind. I am used to it at home so can go into almost a revery while doing it. Zen and the art of washing-up!

There is a possibility of having our singing group sing at Foodcycle if I can get my singing colleagues to agree to it. Hopefully it wouldn't put people off their food too much!
