Roast pork supper...

at the Bath Congregational Church tonight!!

This usually is one of the better attended meals for the Church.  With the bad economy it will be interesting to see how we do tonight.

The meals are served family style and include beverage (coffee, tea, milk or water) and desert - which will be apple crisp tonight.  All of that for only $9.

The money will help with some unexpected expenses the Church got nailed with when the State Fire Marshal declared that the Church had to put fire retardant on all the wood walls,  put a fire exit at the front of the Sanctuary and redo the boiler room.  All of which has cost over $5000.  A princely sum for this little Church.

The serving will start at 5PM.  Take outs start at 4:30PM.

I will be in charge of the green beans which entails the cooking and dishing up as tables fill up.

The servers, dishwashers and servers will eat after the supper is over.  On more than one occasion there hasn't been anything left (which is a good thing) so we have to go to McDonalds.

When we used to come to New England to vacation we would see signs for Church suppers in the many small towns.  If we knew then what we know now, we would have gone to several of them.

Anyone is welcome to attend and you couldn't ask to meet more friendly people.

Well, I was going to take a few pictures but left my camera at home.

The dinner was a success.  There was barely enough pork left for the "help" to eat.

The next dinner is in October and is turkey with all the trimmings for the benefit of the volunteer fire department.  That's a fun one to work as well.

Today's temps:
Low 53.7 at 0153
High   76.1   at 1533

Take care...Karen
