Our First Community Dinner, February 10, 2009

We have had many potlucks meals together before, but somehow this evening was different. It could have been the fact that Lori was cooking and all we had to do was show up and eat. Or that members had actually started to move into their units, making this project seem tantalisingly real. I had arrived early, at 4 pm to help Lori and her team. I made chili chutney for the first time.
People arrived at 5:30 and we said a blessing over the meal. Lori described all the dishes, an Indian meal, free of gluten, milk, soy, wheat, nuts, or apples. It was magnificant.
