My adventures are as diverse as my friends. I'm an advid long-distance bike rider, cook, author, artist, volunteer, mother, grandmother, and wife.

Apparently, watching TV at my desk is a team activity. And Luna has decided she's the team captain. 😂🐱

It doesn't matter what I'm watching, how comfortable I am, or whether I'm in the middle of something. If Luna wants attention, Luna gets attention. Preferably RIGHT NOW.

She has mastered the art of sitting there looking absolutely adorable until I finally give in. And let's face it, who can resist that face? ❤️

I'm pretty sure I'm just the human who happens to live in HER house.

Today’s lunch at the senior center started with a little kitchen challenge… 😂 How do you cook a **20-pound beef roast in just two hours**?

I cut it into thirds, hoping that would speed things up. It helped, but after two hours, the centers were still barely around 100°F! 😳 Time for some quick thinking! I sliced the beef into pieces for the sandwiches and popped it back into the oven for another 10 minutes. That got the temperature up enough to keep things moving!

Then it was time to assemble the roast beef melts. I toasted the French rolls, mixed up a little mayo and Dijon mustard for the inside, and added slices of provolone cheese. We actually had to slice the cheese ourselves while the beef was cooking! Once the hot roast beef went onto the rolls, it helped melt that cheesy goodness. 🧀

Yesterday, while prepping other things, I shredded green and purple cabbage and carrots for homemade coleslaw. Today I tossed it all together with mayo, vinegar, sugar, celery seed, and just a pinch of salt. I was eyeballing the measurements, and it turned out PERFECTLY! 🙌

We also had roasted petite gold potatoes tossed in olive oil, salt, and pepper. And dessert? A HUGE thank-you to Marilyn, one of our exercise instructors, who donated **two key lime pies and three marionberry pies!** What a wonderful contribution that made the day so much easier. ❤️🥧

We served 24 people today, including staff, so we had a few more hungry mouths than usual. But here's the best part: I actually got to sit down and eat with *my people* while everyone enjoyed their lunch!

I'm finally getting into a routine, figuring out the timing, and learning how to make these lunches come together without quite so much chaos. Of course, a little improvisation is apparently part of the job! 😂

One lunch at a time, we're getting there!
