MOT Food

Special thanks to all the MOT food helpers. We managed to get 400 people through the food lines in 40 minutes !!!! Even the OBS folks had time for seconds. This would not have happened without you. You are a great group to work with. Thanks again!

We just got back yesterday from The White Mountains. Audra and I really had a fantastic time with all of you.
we've waited a year to see Mike and Ariane, but they were so busy working, we didn't get to see much of you I think we'll have to set up our own visit.

Thanks to everyone who worked on MOT. It was great, and we can't wait until next year.

Totally!

And supreme congrats Diane for pulling it all together so well - it's great to have the food issue resolved.



Aside:
People who did their own food thing at the tent: how did it go?

I think I have some mixed feelings on the food.
Yes the organization etc was excellent.
But even knowing I wasn't getting dessert, I didn't get much of anything else either. The plate was tiny. One tiny piece of chicken. I literally piled food items 3-high (pasta salad over beans over ceasar salad!) to make up for the tiny chicken. And I did look, all the other chickens were equally as small, and they only handed you one. And of course I would have really liked a dessert, but I need some chocolate after every meal of the day or else I think I would not be able to live anymore.
Of course the food was all spectacular, like last year, some of the best catered food I've had.
