PORINGLAND WOMEN'S INSTITUTE


We had a very enjoyable meeting in September when Francis Mobbs came and gave us a cookery demonstration.  We have seen her before so we knew we were in for a tasty evening.  She started by handing round three trays of delicious canapes she had prepared earlier.  She then proceeded to cook quick and easy to prepare starters, main courses and desserts and giving us a lively commentary at the same time.  She produced approximately a dozen dishes, which were then put in the raffle. We had several visitors from other Institutes who were lucky enough to win some of dishes, suitably wrapped in foil.
At the end of September we decided to hold a morning Jumble Sale in the Community Centre by way of a change and it proved very successful - items just flew off the tables!
Our next meeting will be on Wednesday 14 November at 7.30pm in the Community Centre.  This will be our Annual Meeting when we may have changes in our Committee and there will be a competition afterwards.
Visitors are always welcome and if there are any queries, please contact Pam Cooper, President on 01508 491674 or Lesley Sanders, Secretary on 01508 492155.
