Today our cook left the ship for personal reasons so we find ourselves with a galley fully provisioned but without anyone to prepare the food. The test of a good and healthy community is that when things get turned upside-down, the groups steps in to fill the void and put everything right-side-up again. Roseway, it turns out, is one of those healthy communities. After inventorying everything we had, the group stepped up and began a rotation of cooking that will carry us through our final leg of this journey to Boston.
Strangely enough, it is our captain and two of our Canadian volunteers that are cooking with great gusto! Katie and Danni have taken to the galley like fish to water and boy are we happy to be fed. This is not to say we won’t be bringing on a full time cook when we get to Boston, but for now, the void is not only being filled, it’s brimming!
