The HR resources people appropriated Administrative Assistant Day and now it’s Staff Appreciation Week, which means they feed us copious mounds of food on a daily basis. Any time work involves a cheese tasting or lamb vindaloo pot pies is a good day. Fromager d’affinois made an appearance, so the “I am cream in your mouth x 3” cheese slathered on a crusty baguette half with an olive was nice. Paula Deen would agree, though she would prefer to slide it down the gullet with a pat of butter.
The semester is crunching down and my crusty stacks of reading really won’t read themselves. I need this weekend to be sunny so I can lie out on the patio and catch up on..oh, eight chapters of psych and half a novel. And maybe build up some momentum on that Dodier translation. It will not help if I go to the roda tonight.
Thanks to facebook gifting, I have an otter in handcuffs.
I want dumplings.
