Ronald McDonald's House

So we as the Brewsters feel the need to do what we can to give back a little to the community and the world around us. As a newly formed group, we decided that the first place we would go would be to the Ronald McDonald House. What an incredible place this is. It offers housing, support, and so much more to families who have children who are undergoing medical treatment at a local children's hospital.

The stress that these families face each day is incomprehensible to most of us. And the last thing they want and should have to worry about is cooking. So that is where we came in. The Brewsters converged on the kitchen and made dinner for the house...

What was for dinner you may ask? The most easy of crock pot recipes! Let us share:

* A 2 1/2 - 3lb Roast

* 1 Package dry brown gravy mix

* 1 Package dry Ranch dressing mix

* 1 Package dry Italian salad dressing mix

* 2 Cups Water

Mix all of the dry ingredients with the water and pour over the roast. Cook in the crock pot for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low. Thicken the drippings for your gravy. And voila! (and trust us, if we can do this without messing it up, anybody can do it!)

Roast, gravy, and a side of potatoes...Success!

The food wasn't the only hot stuff in the kitchen!

And p.s. This is a great place to take all of your pop tops to!...
And yes, we do have a bit of a drinking problem (don't judge), but in our defense this was a collection that has been going on for a little while and one that we did receive a little, okay a lot of  help from our friends with... Thanks Bobby and Grem!

Thank you everyone who made tonight possible...for your donations, the use of your crock pots, for your time, your help, for being there, and just being you! It takes a village to raise a child and to pull of a well done service project...we couldn't have done it without the help of everyone. We truly do appreciate you all.

Thank you Ronald McDonald House for sharing your space with us tonight and for those of you who shared a little of your time and of your stories with us. We will be praying for you.

Count on it, we will be back!...
