Saturday's Shots ~ Right on the Money #5

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

 

Every month I make it a priority to volunteer at the Central Texas Food Bank with Roxanne Ford of Austin Title. It's always a surprise to see what duties we will be performing. Sometimes its working in their kitchen and sometimes in the Warehouse like last weeks shift. We had bags to fill from local produce donated. My job was to start the line with 5 pounds of carrots (give or take) weigh it and pass it on to those inserting 3 pounds of potatoes and then 3 pounds of onions.

Since the produce varies in size it became a game to try and hit the scales right on the money! My first time I nailed it we all cheered but by the end of our shift I nailed it 12 times........ Time to buy a lotto ticket with a winning number 5!

Good job! I want to follow your footsteps and volunteer at Glide Memorial every month instead of just an occasional time. I think that will be on my 2019 plans.

You picked the perfect handfuls, Dorie! And, yes, you should buy that lottery ticket - the number 5 has your name on it! Love hearing about your volunteer efforts in Austin - our food bank is huge here too and you don't ever know what your task for the day will be - I think that's why it's such a fun place to volunteer!

Happy Sunday!
