| Beef Shish Kebobs on the BBQ - yummy! |
MUM’s premier session, delivered on September 22, had the theme of Backyard BBQ and was complemented by sunshine and warm weather. This was the first session held in the brand new kitchen at Highbanks Society and the kitchen layout worked out well for interacting with the moms. We had five mom participants, four Highbanks Society volunteers and five JLC volunteers. The 2 D’s (Donna Fan and Deb Vanderberg) ran the session and the third D, Dani Flowerday, helped to plan the menus and nutrition portions of the September, October and November sessions.
The menu for this first session included Beef Shish Kebobs served with Ancient Grains Rice, Greek Salad, Pita and Humus and Apple Crisp. Melanie Tewksbury, Cyndi Cox and Tammy Nazari volunteered for this session, with Cyndi and Tammy baking the Apple Crisp Desserts. Menu adjustments were made for our new Vegetarian participant.
All the moms were given a MUM binder and Cook! by Dietitians of Canada. All the returning residents were given copies of the day’s menu and the gifts for this session were BBQ tongs and “Fire Wire” skewers.
The seven future MUM sessions scheduled for this year will also be delivered at the newly remodelled kitchen at Highbanks Society.
