Good Things #3

Meals! Another of my things...taking meals to those in need. The usual meal recipients come to mind...a new baby (my favorite meal to deliver) or an illness or death. Recently I read an article and started to think about others who would really appreciate a meal...teachers during the first week of school - one less thing to think about while getting back into the new year. Another good one is a neighbor after they have been out of town. How nice to come home to a dinner when you expect the pantry and fridge to be empty.

A great sight to organize meal support: Care Calendar.

My top meal tip: Give food in containers you do not want returned. Multiple meals are a blessing but keeping track of baking dishes and bowls to return puts a damper on the good deed.

The number of months we have left in London. We are moving back to America at the New Year. I could stay longer but I am also looking forward to being an American in America again. Now I feel almost stressed to see the whole of London in the next four months. And as much of Europe as the budget will allow - that pesky budget always causing trouble. Today we ate a picnic on Primrose Hill and visited the London Zoo. I hate to be a check the box tourist but we have to be organized!
