Today was my first serving shift at the Community Kitchen (my past shifts have all been prep shifts). Serving is fun, and it was good to actually see the patrons, all of whom were quite polite and pleasant. A lot of them commented on my t-shirt, which says "Brooklyn Grows Great Women." I served ham and potato casserole, baked beans, salad, and pineapple.
My favorite thing about the community kitchen is the other volunteers - where else can you see heavily tattooed punks, retirees, Midwestern college kids and the cognitively disabled all working happily together towards a common goal? It's so nice!
