SPECIAL DELIVERY INGOMAR
May, 2020
Donald John and Alice Cameron recently came up with an Ingomar ‘Meals on Wheels’ effort for Sunday Supper.
Alice, and family – her grandson Cody was visiting for the day – delivered a full-fledged Spaghetti extravaganza to everyone in town Sunday. Recipients included Pam and Nick Finelli, Karen and Mike Stroh, Owen Badgett, Linda Lou Crosby and Hart Broesel (and their friend Paul who has been visiting since before this all began), Emily Olson and Morris Ware, and Susie and Calvin Webber. “I think Alice should start a restaurant!” said Hart Broesel, as the spaghetti, green beans and surprise desert disappeared in a flash!
Alice and family quickly handed off the food, Ingomar’s version of “curbside” delivery….although Ingomar has no curbsides of course….a few errant cows might serve as guides..and you can imagine what’s along the “curb”…. and zipped on their way to the next home.
Ingomar resident Pam Finelli had recently initiated an Ingomar letter-recipe exchange as she and husband Nick are holed up for the duration. in December, Pam had planned on a monthly Tea or fun meal she talked about during a Christmas Tea at Linda Lou and Hart’s place. Obviously gatherings are out for awhile.
…So Pam had another idea on how to connect with Ingomar folks…Pam’s letter began “Hello Neighbor! We hope this finds everybody healthy and strong.” and continued “Please know that I haven’t forgotten about our Tea Party, and getting together once a month. It’s still the game plan”…and included her recipe for “100 year old casserole”.
Alice Cameron followed by sending her “Neighbors” letter out, “Hopefully we will do a tea when this is all over and done with – hopefully sooner rather than later.” and included a recipe that “Bud Kramer used a lot”, ‘Bud’s Raisin Cake’. “It is a depression cake,” added Alice.
“We don’t know about the rodeos, or anything like that right now,” added Alice, “What we do know is we have a wonderful community, and are grateful for that.” All of us are grateful that Alice is such a good cook! Best to all, and take care.
