It's Friday and the end of my second week in the internship! Time is literally flying.
This week, I spent time working with kids in a couple of different programs, visiting more food pantry centers, and working on a variety of other projects in the office for my supervisor.
One program called the "Farmer's Pantry" allows the other interns and I to teach kids simple recipes (like green smoothies, salad and dressing and salsa), have the kids taste what they eat and the kids learn basic nutrition information. Another program I helped with this week was in partnership with the American Dairy Association and the Summer Servings program that provides meals at schools, parks, libraries, and a few other locations throughout the summer.
I think my favorite part about the internship so far is that I am learning about all of the wonderful assets that Marion County and Indianapolis already have available. Sometimes, I think it's very easy to focus on a very distant end goal without looking at the little steps it takes to get there....right now I am looking at the little steps.
Because I am definitely in the thick of internship mode quick, easy, and nutritious meals are a MUST.
