We feed the homeless the last Sunday of every month. So this Sunday we will feed about 300 people a hot meal. They are good people in a bad spot, so if you want to join us you are welcome to help serve!
We picked up bread today for grilled Cheese sandwiches, and it filled half of the bed of a full sized truck! We should have plenty for all the sandwiches anyone wants to eat.
We will set up at 11th and S. Denver in Tulsa at 2:00 PM to feed at 3:00 PM and all are welcome to come and help. Last month we had a Biker from a Christian motorcycle club, passing out napkins, LOL! It is a good work, but it is fun too.
This time we will serve Mexican food, because they always enjoy that! There will be some spaghetti there for the few that do not like Mexican food. I LOVE to watch the smiles from people that often go hungry!
sir smithlabs! I didn't know you were working on the food stuff last night! What were you cooking last night while we were commenting? Wow that time goes fast, I had no idea it was already time for that again! What kind of Mexican food? Do you have alot of Hispanics that come? And I suppose you speak Spanish too or just your jibberish Okie redneck language?

Yo habla espanyol solemente un muy pokito.
I was cooking a roaster of Spanish Rice and refried beans; along with an armload of tacos and supplies for Cheeseburgers, toasted cheese sandwiches, and fried egg sandwiches (by requests). We also had two different chilli roasters, nachos, baked potatoes for the chilli. Also the regular: au gratin potatoes, Mac and cheese, and spaghetti.
We served 360 homeless today. The most we have ever had show up. We had enough food, but we kept the grill running for two and a half hours. We served 100+ burgers, 250 cheese sandwiches, and about a hundred fried egg sandwiches. It was insane, but we got through it, LOL!

Not this time, we really had a LOT of people show up today. We took them stuff yesterday, but we were hoping to feed them Monday too.
BUT We fed everyone all they wanted!

Yes, we feed there every time we find extra food. We feed there every Saturday with left overs from Church. Sometimes I think the Church makes extra food just so we will have a lot of extra food for the Denver House.
After we feed this meal, if we have some left, we take it to the Denver House also. They do Good work, and needs all the support they can get.

yeah yeah yeah they're a bunch of saints over there...but what do you mean "We feed there every Saturday with left overs from Church."
I thought you only took food to the Denver House after you had your big monthly feeding?
Are you trying to confuse me again? that's not nice ya know.

We feed about 50 homeless weekly at the Denver House. This is separate from the monthly homeless meal, and is mostly leftovers. When we are short, we make pancakes or sandwiches. The Denver House has no budget for food, so we try to help.
They are doing good work, at the level of people who are at the highest risk, usually the people that the other shelters will not take.
Last year, the Lady that tallies the head count said we fed out 6,953 homeless meals total. Thankfully a lot of that food was donated!

I can get on discord on a tablet, it will not run on my Linex OS; so it is a bloody mess, but I will try after this meal is done.
They are good people, in a bad spot; we WILL keep feeding them!

Sounds good, we have Eight kitchens cooking 300 plus meals, should be fun, LOL!
Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, and we will get through tomorrow! It is nice to have help now, we got so big that my kitchen and Billy's were just not enough any more. I started asking for help when I cooked for eighteen hours straight, and did not finish cooking all the food!
We will set up two grills and run them non stop for over two hours. We will make cheeseburgers, barbecue burgers, toasted cheese sandwiches, and French toast on the grills.

They are thankful for the food, and we are glad to help. I had a little girl give me a hug and thanked me for the meal! I was thrilled to feed her, but it broke my heart all the same!
Her parents have raised her well, and she is a cutie! Very prim and proper, good to see kids growing up right.
We have one Man that is always drunk, but he is Very friendly and happy. He has a lot of Native American blood, because he warned me about pow wows.He told me that if I go to a pow wow, I need to be careful of the young ladies, because they will get you drunk, and steal your money, ROFLOL! Sounded like good advice too!
