Also, due to the importance os the Miso Soup Breakfast and the problems we had with the rice and egg, the group decided we needed to be prepared for the upcoming one in 2010, so they honored the Kiwanians with a dozen eggs and a 5# bag rice. The eggs was used for Audrey’s dessert and the rice was cooked for Roy’s Chili that were all contributions to the Blood Bank Drive held on May 25th. Several members tried to
