Friends, we need your help. Allow me to explain. A typical Friday for us goes like this... 3:45am - Amanda's alarm goes off and she hops in the shower and does her thing to get ready for work. 5:00am - Amanda arrives at work for a full 8hr day. 5:30-6:00am - I wake up and start my day. 6:15am - Walk into our stuffed garage and sift through the bag that we bring to PB. 6:20am - Refilling necessary items for the night: Packing plates, folding 100-200 forks inside napkins, pouring Parmesan cheese from the bag into the container for an easy pour, etc... 6:45-7:15am - Slicing whatever bread donations we have that week and buttering each piece, then wrapping in foil pan. 7:15-8:30am - Re-evaluting my sermon and checking for any errors, and prayer. 10:00-10:30am - Drive to Costco for pasta sauces. 10:30-10:45am - Drive to Vons for alfredo sauces. 11:00am - Pack bag with all items to be used later. 1:00pm - Strategically place each large pot, strainer, and personal weight scale, in it's rightful place for easy access once Amanda gets home. 1:15pm - Amanda leaves work and heads home. 2:00pm - Amanda gets home. 2:15pm - I start loading the truck. 2:20-3:00pm - Amanda is weighing herself first, then grabs a bag full of desired pasta and returns onto the scale to determine the weight of the pasta... all while multitasking and cooking in between weights. 3:00-3:15pm - Amanda evaluates what hygiene supplies need replenishing and fills accordingly, by walking from our living room into our backyard shed numerous times. 3:15-3:30pm - Scrape whatever remnants of sterno fuel I could reuse into lesser full cans and open new ones as necessary. 3:30-4:00pm - Finish loading the truck, including all food pans. 4:00-4:15pm - Prayer again. 4:15-4:20pm - On our way to PB. 4:45-5:00pm - Arrival in PB and immediately unload. 5:00-5:05pm - Huddle for prayer. 5:05-5:25pm - Give sermon. 5:25-5:30pm - Start serving food. In case you missed where we need the help, back up to 2:20pm. There is something wrong here. We need a commercial grade food scale for the amount of food we're handling. It seems so ridiculous to stand and reweigh over and over just to get weight for the pasta. Silly, right? The problem is the commercial grade scales are pretty expensive... at least for us. We need all you friends and readers to please join us in prayer regarding the food scale. I'm not asking for your financial contributions, just some good old fashioned prayer for something that we need. We appreciate it!
