Hi folks,
Well, it's just one more day for most of you til you are off for a whole
week! Some of the Cafeteria workers have a little longer to go, since
we'll have to be open this weekend and then again on Monday due to
basketball games that are keeping the ball teams, cheerleaders, etc. on
campus a little longer. After that though, we'll all be able to be off
and go home and enjoy the break with our families. Now there's
something to be thankful for!
I'm not real thrilled with the weather forecast. They're saying it's
supposed to be cold, windy and then colder. I don't like the sound of
any of that. Mildred and I were down in the freezers doing inventory
this morning, so we've already had a preview of cold and colder. It's
not pretty. In case some of you wonder what my job consists of besides
sending out the daily menu and of course my silly comments, a good
amount of time close to the end of the month is spent doing inventory;
writing down every bit of food and supplies we have in stock and how
much it all costs. Of course, when we're doing the freezers, only part
of that time is spent writing down items and prices, the rest is spent
warming up my pen, (until I give up and use a pencil because the pen
froze up), thawing my fingers and feet, and defogging my glasses.
Inventorying the freezers feels like working outdoors in the Arctic
without the blizzards and polar bears. I'm hoping in the new building
we have a scanning system so that "doing inventory" will be obsolete.
Since Mildred and I both have asthma, she decided we should wear masks
this time so that we wouldn't breathe in as much cold air. I couldn't
decide if we looked like we were about to do surgery or rob the place.
Our menu for today includes:
Burritos with chili and cheese
Refried beans
Mexican rice
Corn
Nachos
Corn dogs
French fries
And for dessert have a hunk of an old American favorite, Chocolate
Cake. (Sorry, after that Mexican menu, I bet you were all expecting
sopapillas, weren't you?)
Have a great day,
Rhoda :-)
