The Feast of the Seven Fishes is popular in Europe. Or substitute something really original for Christmas.
Tell each guest to substitute their least favorite dish of the meal with something they really like. Do grill and/or roast veggies and finish them in a sauce (homemade of course).Īnother strategy is to offer the holiday food challenge. Make gravy that is a feature of the meal and not an afterthought.Īll spuds are mashed using tons of real butter and heavy cream.Ĭinnamon is permitted on sweet potatoes. Don’t serve a whole bird, don’t think of spuds as an afterthought, don’t boil any veggies.ĭo cook only parts of the bird that get gobbled up like drumsticks, thighs and breasts. Have joy at anticipating seeing people again? Trepidation at hearing what and why they dislike various parts of the holiday dinner? Well - Oma to the rescue. The hope is that the so-called “adults in the room” will grow up and start listening to the individuals who make their organization run. If the organization is faltering, it is not a sign that the demands of the staff are too great, but a sign that the leadership of Capital Roots never thought they’d be held accountable to the workers they’ve taken advantage of time and time again. In advocating for themselves they are also advocating for a stronger Capital Roots. To say that in seeking the protections that a union provides these staff members are destroying the organization is outrageous and simply untrue. Their commitment to the organization’s mission never falters despite short staffing, disrespect and condescension from management, and wages so low that many have to take on second jobs. Whether interacting with volunteers, farmers, students, gardeners, or business owners, these are the people who make all the direct service and community collaboration possible. I have never worked with a team who was as committed to their organization, mission, and community. 19 letter to the editor (“Union doing harm to Capital Roots,”) Eric Winders lays uncalled-for blame on members of Roots United/SEIU, yet it is clear he knows nothing about the character of the group he is so critical of.įrom the spring of 2020 until the summer of 2021, I was the food hub director at Capital Roots and worked closely with much of the staff that has since unionized.
