What's up my friends! > As they say, "the more you give the more you receive" I am so happy that our feeding program to the children of our community was successful! We, had fed around 40-50 kids yesterday with the following nutritious foods: - Lugaw (porridge in English), a nutritious food very popular in our area. - Vegetable Lumpia - Calamansi Juice First, sorry if the kids are not wearing face masks and not practicing social distancing. We were not able to control these measures because our area here has not really practiced Covid measures because our area don't have active cases. ![Kids3.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeJ1tJFfsXAP58Q4f52fKMagTxijJobxCg9E75Pgz9uzx/Kids3.jpg) Me and my friends @belsoronz and @jassennessaj (who donated the amount of 25 Steem we used for the feeding) have planned this long time. The pandemic is a big problem in our area, people have no money, and food was one of the aspects that were affected. So, we decided to take this project and help our kids enjoy these meal. It's been around a week since we talked about this project and I am so happy that we just pushed it! The smiles of the kids were precious and our tiredness were relieved just by seeing their happy faces. We went to the public market around 10am to buy the ingredients needed for the feeding program. Thank you to @jassennessaj for giving the shirts to us, his shirt campaign was supported by @stephenkendal. ![Groufie - 1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmf8K5EiZ8pFi56ZRbi5Rqj54zCVukhV98nPMcUb2JNpx5/Groufie%20-%201.jpg) # We started buying the ingredients for our vegetable lumpia. We bought Tawgi (Beansprouts) at 40 pesos per kilo, Sari-sari at 40 pesos per kilo, and Wrapper for lumpia at Marigold. ![Buying - 7.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmU8vYje2eaxHkLm6yZSbJxeGF3FMTGZ4CX2uUBRNtjccJ/Buying%20-%207.jpg) # By the way, these are the foods that we prepared: For the lugaw (Porridge): - 2 kilos of Rice (for the porridge) - 20 mL of Oil - 3/4 kilos chicken broth. - 2pcs knorr pork cubes - 3pcs Magic Sarap - Salt, pepper, carrots, onions, garlic, and ginger. - Plastic spoon and plastic cups For the Juice: - 50 pcs of Calamansi Juice - 2 packs of Tang Orange - 1/4 White Sugar - Plastic Cups For the Vegetable Lumpia: - 2 kilos of Beansprouts - 3 kilos of Mixed vegtables (Sayote, carrots, etc.) - 1 kilo of ground pork - 4 packs of wrapper (around 100 pcs in total) - - 1-1/2 kilo of Oil - 3 pcs Oyster Sauce - 3pcs Magic Sarap - 1/8 kilo brown sugar. - Onions and Garlic - 2pcs Butane Gas (for cooking) *** Then we bought the chicken (for lugaw), pork (for vegetable lumpia), and other missing ingredients.

We cooked first the lugaw, then at the same time (using butane gas), we started cooking for the vegetable lumpia. We made it fast so that we can finish everything by 3:30 pm so the kids will enjoy. ![Preparation - 1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTLnrYBXM6qLGcn27PXWmX6KDeXnAiM2RTJjNK7epRjAR/Preparation%20-%201.jpg) # While I was so busy cooking for the lumpia, my friends @jassennessaj, @belsoronz, and Dexter (not yet Steemian), were also busy preparing for the vegetable lumpia. ![Preparation.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmecuKjjHXT3TURQ77BL2H3TyXWMVFVoxnSwmZtbgionng/Preparation.jpg) # After everything we prepared, we are finally ready!
