If you think $5 for a complete meal is a good price, then you should come and try out the Clinton County Senior Center Public Meal on Mondays. The meals are made by some very good cooks and will certainly fill you up for the day. Lunches in March include:
Mar 7: Roast Turkey, Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, Vegetable and Cranberry Sauce (cooked by Steve and Ruth Powers)
Mar 14: Lasagna, Vegetable, Garlic Bread, Fruit (cooked by Terry Thelen and Stu Fitzpatrick from Century 21 Property Mart)
Mar 21: Scalloped Potatoes and Ham, vegetable, rolls and salad (cooked by Tyler Barlage and other area ministers)
Mar 28: Chop Suey, Vegetable, Rolls and Jello Salad (cooked by Brenda and Darlene Terpening from the Chamber of Commerce)
The cost of these complete meals is only $5 – it is $6.50 if you get the homemade pie to go along with the meal. If you are not that big of an eater, you can get a sandwich (Chicken Salad, Ground Bologna, Grilled Cheese, etc) for $2 or a bowl of homemade soup for $1.50.
