Helping the Herons

The kitchen staff!
On Monday night I went to visit those crazy Herons at the HQ. They were starting their Home Help badge. Half the pack (green six and red six) were cleaning the windows, ironing their own scarves (that had been freshly laundered over the weekend) sewing on a badge and cleaning silver. Learning these skills at the HQ building means that they should now be able to go home and "help" with these tasks when needed, knowing that they will be of assistance.

The other half of the pack (blue six and yellow six) had invited me, Dormouse (Beavers), Shere Khan (Cubs), Rama (GSL) and Oli (YL) to dine in the committee room. First they set the tables and took their guests orders. The tables looked great and even had candles, menus and breadsticks. As well as lovely red tablecloths.

Each guest could choose an omelette and a variety of fillings which was served with a fresh salad (Rama's favourite!) some warm crusty bread. The Cubs needed to take the order and then go to the kitchen and cook what each guest had requested. This they did with aplomb  and it was duly served to the grateful diners.

The meal was accompanied by a drink and followed by Peach flan and cream. After this had been eaten and cleared away tea, coffee and an after dinner mint were the order of the day. We all enjoyed our meal and would recommend Snuggles Diner to everyone. 

I am beginning to understand that food is very important to those at 3rd Ware. They seem to do a lot of eating, which is fine by me as long as I get an invite! I am going down in a few weeks time when the Red and Green sixes are cooking.
