January 24th

Dinner at the Wellspring tonight was tuna pasta bake and pudding was a hodge-podge of Eccles cakes, scones and mince pies.

Volunteers: 6. Visitors: about 35... I think.

The pasta bake included: 5 fresh red onions, 3 tins tomatoes, 3 tins ratatouille, 11 tins tuna, 5 tins pasta bake sauce, about 4 tins each mixed vegetables and sweetcorn and 2kg mixed-shape pasta. This was all topped with plenty of grated cheese. Of course, served alongside bread.

Pudding was a hodge-podge because my original plan had just been Eccles cakes; there was some puff pastry in one of the freezers and so I brought along the currants and brown sugar (donated by my parents) to finish them off. These got made but some scones were also donated shortly before service started and needed to be used. There were also open packets of mince pies about, so they got used up too. And I’m fairly sure all of these got served with custard. Anything goes with custard if they ask for it...
