Cubs Chef Badge

Image
The Cubs put our new kitchen through its paces this session when they worked towards their chefs badge. Half the pack cooked up a delicious meal of freshly made pesto with pasta, while the other half baked mouth watering cookies. From measuring ingredients, to chopping and mixing, boiling and baking...each six prepared their dishes themselves from start to finish, earning valuable culinary skills along the way.  Not forgetting the all important taste test! The verdict.... "10/10, I can  definitely recommend the 1st Ealing North Bistro!" ...which is good news as it'll be back open for business in 3 weeks time, when the Cubs swap over recipes so they get to experience both. Special thanks to Kaa (Monica) for organising the session, plus all the other leaders and helpers for pitching in. (Not forgetting our washer uppers drafted in at last minute!)

The Cubs also all penned a postcard to our new Chief Scout Dwayne Fields, telling him what they liked about Cubs, and what they would like to see him do in his new role.  Thanks to all the Leaders and helpers for a great session .
