Health Fair and Pot Lucks.

We had a Health Fair on Tues. right here in our Apt. building. Not just for the Tenants here....but, opened to the public. It was a very good turn out.....but, when ever you say there's going to be "Free Food" everybody & their brother shows up.
We knew the Meal Service was going to be late.......as the Health Fair ended at 11:30....& we start serving at 11:30. And of course we were serving spaghetti that day which meant ....Salad. They send us the salad in big steam table pots......along with small bowls.......& we have to put it all together.
The Health Fair started running out of food about 11:00.......& we started making the salads at 11:00.........so, we had people coming up to the serving window asking for salad.......& had to tell them it was for the Noon Meal. I even seen one lady trying to untie the plastic from around the cake...which was for the Meal. I had to take it off the counter & put it on top of the steam table. One man even came up to the window & said he didn't get a muffin. We had to explain to him.......we had nothing to do with the food for the Health Fair.....& if it was gone...it was just gone. Gees ! I felt like I was in the store doing a Demo.
Just what is it about most of these people & free food ? I've never seen the likes of it in my life. Most of these people act like they have never had a bite to eat in their life.
But, all in all the Health Fair was great !
Then there was a Pot Luck supper........which was only for the people who live here.....& that was real nice. I like the Pot Luck suppers.......it gives you a Chance to meet all the people who live here....get to know who they are.
It was very relaxed. Except.......I brought baked beans (the Bush's Grilling Beans) & there were 3 other bowls of baked beans. I can't win ! Last time we had a Pot Luck.......I made Potato Salad.......& so did 4 other people. (sigh)
I had a good time.
But, now I have to get ready to go to work. I took to long to write this & I'm running late.
Note: Actually I wrote this last week..........& I'm only now putting it here on my Blog. Talk about a day late & a dollar short.!.
