Food Pantry Boxes
I waited until dark, swallowed my pride, and let all the headlights pass by so I could stealthily check out and grab something to eat tonight from the 2 closest community boxes in Mandeville. First one had canned carrots, rotel tomatoes, corn and some books. The 2nd box had more rotel, carrots and a single can of no salt pinto beans. I grabbed the pintos.
I've never used the community boxes before but this week is... a real doozy. From the pictures of them on Facebook, I thought they would have maybe a can of spaghettios? I don't want to sound ungrateful and I'm not picky at all! I just feel so defeated and can't help but think people who didn't actually need it came and wiped them out.
I have 11 cents in my account until Wednesday, but I will be replacing the pintos I took. I pray that I can eventually donate more. Something that can pass as a meal.
