Communication is listed as one of the skills necessary for success in the 21st Century Workplace. Additionally, it is an important life skill that will benefit children and teens as they grow into competent, caring adults.
Many people think of communication as just speaking; however it works best when it is a two-way street. Listening and asking questions are also important in the communication process.
At our club meetings this month, we will practice sending and receiving messages and learn the importance of cooperative communication.

Sweet Potatoes
These #1 select sweet potatoes, grown in Iota, Louisiana, have been kiln-cured to meet the rigorous standards of today’s demanding agricultural market. All potatoes are packaged in a sack (with dirt on potatoes).
Rice
Creole Rose is a 100% natural aromatic long grain rice. Its physical and aromatic qualities are derived from an Indian Basmati rice crossed with an American extra-large long grain rice. A delicate popcorn like aroma combined with a pleasant nutty flavor makes it excitingly captivating.
Pecans
Pecans are sold in a variety of flavors in 16 oz. bags from Pointe Coupee Pecan.
Praline crunch is a great topping for a sweet potato casserole!
