After having to choose from scores of cooks at the many "people who cook" events I have attended in the distant, and not too distant, past, it was enjoyably relaxing to simply choose from about ten cooks, and very good ones at that, at the third annual "Youth Can Cook Too" fundraiser organised by the young communicants of the All Saints Anglican Church at the Memorial Hall.
The organisers of the massive cook-fests will most probably find this unusually strange, but believe me I was very happy choosing my three or four dishes from a tasty barbecue chicken, baked fish, mystery meat, melongene and mince meat pie, jerk pork, the most delicious baked concoction of sweet potato and pineapple, a couple of other dishes and dessert.
Every dish tastily prepared by the happy group of young adult members of the Church's Youth Group who meet on the 1st, 2nd and fifth (if there is one) Saturday of the month, in an attempt to raise their own funds for the many activities and projects in which they participate during the year.
The Hall was tastefully decorated and the youngsters saw to it that their guests were very well looked after while the group's president cum photographer was Candace Moore.
