Finished the orientation phase of the project at the Boys and Girls Club for class project. I am looking forward to working with the dragonfly project and the art room. My initial thoughts are to create and decorate a foldable book of recipes for "food of love" activities. The food of love is any meal prepared with love for someone we love. It is the central metaphor of my life's work. I plan on organizing my time around the gardening groups and the art groups and preparation of a small paper book.
I am delighted to know that they use a salutation and first name for all adults. I will be Mr. Scott. It reminds me of going to Guatamala and getting to know everyone by name. Names are very important to me, and I think that they must be important to the kids and volunteers as well.
I want to be careful not to pretend or promise too much. I am only there for a short time and want to do something that is fun, foodie friendly, and short lived. Too many things get too big too fast in all of our lives.
I will ask if I can post some decorated recipes and some photos of the garden/dragonfly work.
