Tuesday, we welcomed Marium Tolson-Murtty, who gave us a presentation about the Hour-A-Day Study Club.
Satellite members have also adopted a new service project. In discussions with Brentwood Recovery Home, it was determined that residents were not always prepared to live on their own, especially in the area of food preparation. Initially, we had looked into offering a series of cooking sessions involving simple recipes, meal planning and other useful information. With the onset of Covid-19, that idea had to be put on hold, so an alternative was suggested. The club agreed to sponsor the preparation of a handbook consisting of marketing/shopping ideas, basic cooking skills, easy references for measuring, substitutions, and kitchen staples as well as simple recipes. Members are asked to submit recipes for inclusion in an easy reference binder, which will be made available to new alumni of Brentwood.
