It is Monday of the last week here and we are starting to wind down. As we were discussing what to give the house parents as a gift. Ross came up with the idea of making pans of the apple crisp the same as what they all devoured on Friday evening. Then we came up with the idea of getting a pan for each of the homes. So off shopping we went.
We caught a ride to the big supermarket (Bourbom) where we purchased enough ingredients to make 10 large pans of apple crisp. Then we went looking for the appropriate bake ware. We picked up some aluminum cake pans, but then saw some heavy glass cake pans for only a few dollars more which we purchased.
Then came the work part of preparing the dessert. peeling and coring 80 apples.
We fired up the big oven and got them all cooked before 6 pm. The house parents had no idea that we were coming by with this delicious surprise.
They were all thrilled to receive the apple crisp, but when we told them that the glass pan was theirs to keep, some were brought to tears. It was a blessing to both us and them. \
So it was an excellent day all around.
Tomorrow we start our packing for the return trip.
Thank you for your prayers.
