Post-Thanksgiving digest: 52 meals delivered by food bank

For all of November on behalf of the Narberth Community Food Bank, Mayor Tom Grady's Narb Net newsletter has asked, "Going to Aunt Millie's for Thanksgiving and need something to do with that bird?"

As it turns out, a lot of people went to Aunt Millie's.

Gigi Tevlin-Moffat, the food bank's coorinator, told Neighbors some people donated two turkies. Yesterday, with help from the community, the food bank delivered 52 Thanksgiving boxes, which included the all-important bird, stuffing, potatoes, vegetables and some chocolate treats. Because Tevlin-Moffat and other volunteers noticed some of their visitors were vegetarian, 10 of the boxes had vegetarian lasagnas in lieu of the turkey.

Also in the boxes were instructions on how to prepare the food.

"People told us, 'My grandmother used to do it, and now I don't know what to do,'" Tevlin-Moffat said.
