December and January
by Tracy Cook on 12/10/2024
|
Howdy, Friends and Neighbors, And I do mean neighbors, we have moved closer to church! Like we are now less than ten minutes away. I will be showing up more often to off-Sunday events, woo hoo! Alright, so at the start of December we held our first-annual Holiday Treats Fundraiser! We had fun, and also raised more than $1300 for Tapestry! We sold out of several items, and so have taken note of what sold and what…didn’t. My Peppermint Add-Ins for hot chocolate were NOT as popular as I thought they would be. Maybe because they looked like nipples, I don’t know 🤣 But I think I will make basic chocolate and peppermint add-ins for next year, and see if they sell faster that way.

by Tracy Cook on 10/14/2024
|
Howdy, Friends and Neighbors It is time to start collecting Green Bean Casserole Kits! Cooking Covenant Group is now taking donations for Green Bean Casserole Kits. For just $8.00, we will donate a complete Green Bean Casserole Kit to NAM. You can donate more than this at your discretion. Partial kits are also fantastic! Or, you may purchase the food on your own and bring it up to church the next time you are up there! (No need for you to get a foil pan or a 2-gallon baggie, I get those in bulk when we are putting the kits together.) A complete kit includes: - 2 cans of green beans
- 1 can of Cream of Mushroom soup
- 1 can of crispy fried onions
- 1 8-ounce box of shelf-stable milk
- 1 foil pan to cook it in
- 1 baggie to hold everything together
We will be collecting money and/or food until Wednesday, November 20. Please send your money to Tracy Cook, facilitator for Cooking Covenant Group, with the tag “GBC Kit”. Venmo: @Tracy-Cook-35 (Picture of my dog laying down) PayPal: gtcook@swbell.net (Picture of my dog standing up and looking at the camera) Zelle: gtcook@swbell.net (Picture of my dog standing up and looking at the camera)

Tamales: A Demonstration
by Tracy Cook on 10/11/2024
|
On November 2, from 3:00-whenever we finish, we will make TAMALES!!! If you’ve always wanted to know how to make these tasty little packages of yumminess, please bring a filling of your choosing, already cooked. How much filling do you bring?! I would recommend that you bring enough to fill a 9X13 casserole. That’s enough for you to have some, and also share with others. You will walk away with at least a dozen, but probably two dozen. I guess it depends on how many we consume directly from the pot they steam in, ha! If you can’t make a filling for whatever reason, then just come over and see how the tamales are assembled. Lend a hand, laugh your butt off, and leave with a dozen tamales. No charge for this, but you do have to fill them and then stay until the tamales are cooked. Some fillings I have made in the past: ALL gluten-free!!! - Sweet Potato with Ginger (vegan)
- Black Bean (vegan)
- Black Bean and Queso Fresco
- King’s Ranch
- Vegetarian King’s Ranch
- Pulled Pork (takes two days)
- Shredded Chicken
- Chicken Mole (takes two days, or take a shortcut and use bottled mole sauce - no judgment!)
There’s more, but you get the idea! Just a tip, though…You don’t want the filling to be too wet. For the King’s Ranch versions, I drained all the canned items and the cooked veggies, and added cream cheese instead of cheddar. Look for more inspiration on Pinterest or Google, or think of what your favorite filling might be. Be creative! Make a dessert version, that’s what the sweet potato one is! We will meet at Dawn and Elisa’s home. Maybe next year I can host, but not yet 🙁 Please contact Elisa if you need the address. I made a mistake last time and sent someone on a wild goose chase… Also in November is Bread Communion! Oh, I do love me some bread! This is one of my favorite UU traditions. I enjoy hearing about everyone’s family recipe, hearing their story of their bread contribution, and tasting all the yummy loaves. Whether it comes from a bakery or is homemade, it’s all good! This service will be held up at Tapestry on November 24. Bring your bread or bread-based dish sliced and ready to serve for Fellowship Hour.

Spooky Foods: A Potluck-style Event
by Tracy Cook on 9/4/2024
|
Howdy, Friends and Neighbors October is sneaking up on us, oooooooo! Time for Spooky Foods! We will have our annual Spooky Foods Party showcasing Halloween foods such as Mummy-Dogs (pictured here) and Werewolf Nails, and any other treat you can think of that fits the theme. Sweet or savory, doesn’t matter. It can be gross-looking, or just have a creepy name. The Werewolf Nails are simply Bugles directly from the bag, ha! You can go over to Pinterest for inspiration, or use your very own brains…metaphorically speaking, of course. We will meet on Saturday, October 5, from 3:00-4:30 PM up at the church. This will be a potluck-style event, so bring your food ready-to-eat. Kids are welcome to attend this time, too, so bring the little monsters with you! Please RSVP below, or by emailing cooking@uutapestry.org.
