Sunday Dinner?

Ok, since I’m gonna be responsible for coming up with a more concrete plan for Sunday dinners together at Holy Grounds, there are a few things I need to know:

1) Food restrictions? Preferences? I know we have some vegetarians, and I’m going to try and keep things healthy and as fresh as possible, but are there other things you’d like to see? Things you positively can’t eat? Food allergies? Feel free to send me any favorite foods, and I’ll see what I can do to hook you up.

2) How often do we want to do this? Once a month? Every other week? When Lisa has her act together? Once we figure out what we want to do, I’ll post here on Thursdays with anticipated menu, then I’ll be looking for RSVPs so I can get a rough estimate. I want to ensure we have plenty of food without being wasteful.

3) We’re looking at keeping costs low – just a few dollars a person, but asking for a suggested donation of $5 to help cover meal costs and have some left over to fund some sort of food mission. Does this seem reasonable?

4) Should I plan to do special event-ish dinners on occasion? Like for given holidays and such? If so, should we anticipate a higher ($10) cost per person? There would be copious notice and announcements.

5) I am gonna need help with getting groceries and making preparations. I would like to eventually move to a system where we have one person doing meal planning (with input, of course) but a team of people that rotate cooking duties. This will help ease the pressure on any one person and will make it a lot easier to have dinner every single week.

Please either email me your thoughts, post a comment, or grab me on Sunday.

Thanks,
Lisa
