2nd March
Today Winslow WI hosted a Cookery Event with Carrie O'Regan from Denman College demonstrating Easter recipes.This event started off as the WI's Bursary meeting but members from other WIs and the general public were invited to come along as well. Every year Winslow offers a Bursary either to one member chosen by ballot to attend a course at Denman College or to finance a group activity with an educational theme or a link to Denman. This year the link was the demonstrator Carrie who produced 6 dishes with a vaguely Easter relevance.The ploughman's lunch and gorgeous traybakes were made and served by Winslow WI members.The finished items which Carrie produced were raffled to the audience so six people went home with a lovely contribution towards a celebratory meal. A very enjoyable and informative day.
About Me
- WIBucks member
- Profile I have been a WI member for over 40 years in various English counties. More than half this time I have spent in Buckinghamshire. I was a VCO (Voluntary County Organiser) for 10 years.I have served on several of the Bucks WI sub-committees and been a Trustee on the Board. I am interested in all crafts, reading and writing and in travel.The WI has provided me with fun and laughter and given me the opportunity to make friends. I believe that the WI has done marvellous work in the past for women's welfare and education and still has an active part to play in today's society. I hope that future generations of women will find much to admire in its history and will take up the challenge of helping women to achieve equally well in the years to come.
