OUTING: Visit to Clements Market

If you have photos to share please sentd them along!
The girls presented their custom-designed heavy-duty shopping bags to the folks at Clements Market, last night.  Those groceries have never been better-dressed!  Decorating and donating the bags are part of the girls' Journey toward a Bronze Award. 

Chef Kyle made everyone feel welcome as he walked us "behind the scenes" and step-by-step through the process of preparing a dish in a commercial kitchen. The staff knew we were there see a cooking demo and EAT the results.  At a previous meeting, a vote had been taken and Mac'N'Cheese was the food of honor.  The girls each received a portion to take home-- although many portions did not make it out the door!

REMINDER:
Ther is no meeting on WEDNESDAY, 11/17/10.
