For some of our Goodgymers, Tuesday is no longer called Tuesday but FoodCycle Day. And there were three of our team helping at High Town Baptist Church for today's meal. Gill was first on the scene - turning up early in an attempt to redeem herself on the pudding front having had a bit of a disaster two weeks ago. Today she was determined to tart up some left over dark chocolate easter eggs, and turn them into 5 rather scrumptious chocolate tarts. With home made pastry completed in the morning, and put to rest until her return in the afternoon - she then completed the tarts with a very chocolatey filling. Lucie arrived as the tarts were baking and she and Gill then started on the main course. Some delicious pan roasted onions and peppers and oven roasted aubergines and courgettes to accompany a lovely fresh tabbouleh salad. And out FoodCycle colleagues completed the meal with a starter of slaw and boiled eggs. (Yes we like to plan our meals backwards sometimes).

Abdulrahman made his entrance once the cooking was underway as he was joining the hosting team once again, and after popping in the kitchen for a quick photo call, was then kept busy setting up the hall, and then on service. He finished the evening by helping the team to put the tables and chairs away and complete the cleaning of the hall and kitchen.

6 goodgymers really made a difference!!! Lucie on her 50th mission worked wonders with Dani in the kitchen despite being short of staff. Farwaz, Abdulramen, David and Neill dod excellent work in setting up , hosting and clearing away. We provided delicious meals for 29 guests plus take aways. Main : egg curry and honey bismati rice Dessert : fruit salad

With the Party in the Park coming up in a few weeks a huge team assembled to distribute information to all the residents who will be affected by road closures over the weekend.

Team from Goodgym joined those from the council, Noah, x-4rce and the international cafe to get out in groups and deliver all the letters.

Although there wasn't a lot of food to choose from to make tonight's meal, the one thing we did have lots of was eggs. So the question for the cooking team was how can we make a tasty dinner using eggs which isn't a tortilla and doesn't involve boiled eggs as we have had enough (or un oeuf) of peeling eggs. For the main course of eggs shakshuka many eggs needed cracking, and the dessert required more eggs to make a fruit custardy base with a meringue topping. So Dani, Lucie and Gill all got cracking in the kitchen. In the main hall the hosting team includes Neill and Abdulrahman, and although Sam was meant to be hosting we soon persuaded her to come into the kitchen as she is the number one potwasher on the team. Another successful meal with lots of happy guests.

2 goodgymers helped to serve up a tasty summer meal to 30 guests plus takeaways. The main was fritata and salad The dessert strawberries cream and fresh fruit.
