I guess that next we'll be reading about the Urban Legend of the food stamp mom with the cart filled with shrimp. I've never seen her, mostly I see people with a lot of ramen noodles and hopelessness in their eyes.
Believe me when I say that my Grandmother wasn't running a gastropub with her cooking, it was more of the "get 'er done" school of cooking than CIA.
When I suggested teaching to cook, I meant the basics. WIC provides basics, teach how to doctor up the basics, teach how to stretch, how to turn leftovers into a meal.
I always try to donate pet food to the food banks. I think that sometimes when you're at a low spot in life your animals keep you sane.
Another charity I have donated to in the past was Dress For Success, don't know if they have a local branch but this would be right up TV's alley. I'm sure a lot of people here have a business wardrobe that they will never again need. Donate it so that someone will have a nice outfit to wear on interviews.
I'm happy that I don't have cheese and milk delivered.
