Dixon center offering meals, gifts
Did you realize we in this area could be eating turkey dinner every day this week (Monday through Friday)? Between the senior centers and free community dinners we can enjoy delicious turkey meals enough to last us until Christmas, if you’re not turkey-ed out by then. I hope we all remembered to pause and appreciate the blessings we still have, living in the U.S.A. Now, it’s on to Christmas cookie and goody making.
You may like to mark your calendars for some events coming up at Dixon Senior Center in December:
There will be a free Community Dinner for our friends and neighbors, on Dec. 10. It will be stew, frybread and dessert served from 5 - 7 p.m. We would hope you come and bring your family and meet new friends. I’m always surprised to see so many people from Dixon that I don’t know at some meeting or celebration.
On Dec. 15 we will have our Christmas meal at noon, followed by a party. We have a good time with a gift exchange — nothing over $10, wrapped and marked for man, woman, or either. It is fun to see who will end up with a gift, as it can be “stolen” by another person.
Here is our menu for half of December:
Thursday, Dec. 1: Chicken salad sandwiches, veggie soup
Monday, Dec. 5: Spaghetti, salad
Thursday, Dec. 8: Huckleberry pancakes, sausage
Monday, Dec. 12: Breaded chicken, mashed potatoes
Thursday, Dec. 15: Christmas dinner
Our dinnertime on Mondays is now 5:30 p.m. year round. Lunch is served at noon on Thursdays. All ages are welcome and you can take home some home, or to a neighbor. Meals are only $4.
Have a nice time exploring the seasonal sales and all the bazaars around. It’s amazing how talented people can be.
