1. Sorting all the donated clothes. You would be surprised some of the trash people donate. If it's completely nasty with stains all over it, no one wants to wear it. Believe it or not, poor people take pride in their appearance and like to look nice too. Tammy & I sorted through tons of bags of clothes and hung up the ones that folks would come to "shop" for.
2. Arranging the food pantry. Lots of donated items were stacked in the hall and other places. The three guys helped by sorting the items and then preparing boxes for families to pick up. For example, a family of 4 would get a box of cereal, 3 canned goods, etc. They were able to prepare many boxes so the center would be caught up for a while.
After helping at the center, we drove to Greenville to enjoy a progressive lunch. We started at Liberty Tap Room and order appetizers. I had the chicken nachos, but also shared with some of the others. All the appetizers were great. We then walked down to High Cotton. They had a fabulous lunch selection. Since we were running low on time, we ordered dessert there as well instead of driving down to Trio.
Our last stop of the day was Hollywood 20 to see the Green Lantern in 3D. This movie was highly entertaining & I thoroughly enjoyed it. The picture turned out kind of eerie with the two characters looking bright white from the flash.
