This afternoon I went to Kaufland with Susan Powell and Valerie Griesse. Our mission: to collect most of the food needed for the Normandy trip. This involved 3 carts overflowing with bread, jelly, juice boxes, cucumbers, candy bars, Nutella, cheese, yogurt, hot dogs, buns, coffee, creamer, sugar, paper plates, napkins, plastic utensils, granola, chips, and eggs. We were quite proud of ourselves – we pushed our loads in style!
When we loaded up the van, it was quite an impressive sight:
We still have to buy the meat, more hot dog buns (we emptied the shelf but there weren’t enough), bananas, and a few other things.
I got a small glimpse of what it is like to be on the ResLife side of things – buying large amounts of food for large groups of people!
