When we are not on a "stay at home" order, two Egg Lady teams meet to box and pay for the eggs. Egg prices are ones that really fluctuate and cause us to watch our budget carefully. Usually we are able to provide a dozen eggs a week to most families and half-dozen to families of 2 or fewer people. Right now the cost of eggs is so high that we have chosen to add a second can of tuna and the coupon for fruits/vegetables and tortillas instead. When normalcy returns, we will go back to our schedule of boxing at Viva Mexico and then staying to have lunch. This supports Agustin and gives us a chance to share what is happening Lakeside.
The Egg Ladies were started by Rachel and Mickey. It grew from just these two amazing sisters to the two teams of today. Rachel is still heading up Team 1. Lisa and Pat are the "commanders" of team 2. Team 1 comes on the first Tuesday of each month at 12:30. Team 2 comes on the third Tuesday of each month at 11:30 |
