I managed to take a few photos of the Raclette Meal in progress. We served Steak, Shrimp, Asparagus, Red Bell Pepper strips, Mushrooms, Thinly sliced Onion, Pickles, Cheese, Boiled Potatoes, bread and butter. It was up to our guests what they would cook on the top of the grills and melt in the individual melting pans that fit under the grill. The usual item placed below the grills is the cheese or something else cooked with a little butter like mushrooms.
For dessert I served the Strawberry Ice Cream Cake that I posted the recipe for on Wednesday Hodgepodge.
The Raclette Meal was a hit and it was a first for all 6 guests. This was a meal that we offered up for an auction item at our church to raise money over and above our usual monthly support for our missionaries to the Ukraine. The couple that won the bid donated $450.00 for this meal for them and 4 of their guests. We enjoyed serving them. The Missionary Auction brought in $16,000 from items donated by our church members and then bid on by people in our church.
This week I’m very busy both helping out by watching the grands during the day and then in the evenings helping with our Vacation Bible School which runs from 6pm until 8:30. I won’t have much leisure time for visiting blogs. I’ll visit when I can.

…this looks yummy. The name, racette is new to me.
Hello,
Sounds like the auction was a success. The food all sounds delicious, and that ice cream cake is a yummy treat.
Take care, have a great new week!
What a wonderful way to have fun, a good meal and support missions at the same time. Just a great idea.
What a wonderful idea carried out beautifully. The successful bidders were lucky — I am sure everyone in the room — hosts and guests — felt blessed. …. have fun with the kiddies (your own grands and the VBS attendees).
It all looks so good. A great idea to raise money for missions. 🙂
What a blessing that your church had this auction to raise money for the missionaries to Ukraine! The food looks delicious and that ice cream cake is beautiful! Praying for you this week with all that you have on your plate.
Missionaries to Ukraine, and all the Christians there sure need our support now. What you’ve done is a meaningful service to them. And… All the best with your VBS!
That was a successful fundraiser! I’m sure that everyone enjoyed the raclette meal! It sure looks delicious!
What an incredible feast and how lucky the ones who got to enjoy it and know they were supporting a good cause.
Love that…both the meal and the funds raised for a good cause! Raclette is so fun to do with friends. We have it enjoyed it as a camping meal a few times this summer.
Oh, I can see you are busy! A lot of work and love put into that meal for the Ukraine. I can imgaine the grands love seeing you there at VBS.
