Season Eatings


     Over the years I have done many  cartoons about overeating during the holidays.  Those cartoons were certainly based upon reality, because this time of year there are so many opportunities to eat delicious food.  We have been to two free community sponsored Christmas Feasts, one for seniors, and the other for everyone.  We also had great food and snacks at the gathering we had for friends on Christmas Eve.  

    The photo above shows just a part of the many desserts offered to us last night at the free Community Christmas dinner sponsored by the churches of McBride.   When I walked into the room with the desserts, I was gobsmacked at the amazingly wide variety of choices.  I sampled as many different options as I my conscience would allow.  

    Not only was all of the food wonderful, but it is always enjoyable to talk and catch up with people we haven’t seen for a while, and meet others we didn’t know.  One of the things I really like about living in a small community, are the many friendships that are formed with the people you see so often in the village.

    Below is a shot of part of the crowd at last night’s Christmas Dinner.
