I've discovered I get a lot more done when John isn't home. He doesn't prevent me from doing stuff but I seem to want to do things around the house when I'm alone. He went out for a fish fry with a ham radio club so I did the dishes (one handed. I hope they are clean LOL) and then baked some bar cookies. I have quite a bit of experience doing

I get way more done when Manolo isn't home.
I think I have the ingredients for those bar cookies...hmmm...
you are tempting me!
And go you for being able to do stuff one-handed. I sure can't.
10 days til you go back to work...you are so sweet to make brownies for your co-workers....I hope you get a raise because it sounds like you like the people you work with.
I think I've lost track of where you work!

I just tasted the bar cookies now that they sat overnight and John tasted them for the first time. We both agree they are good. I was very skeptical that it would work because I've never had a dough be that stiff! It did though and I am glad I tried it.

I truly like my co-workers. Pretty much all of them. I've gotten very close to co-workers in the past but I don't remember ever enjoying all of them! I work at The Corner Bakery now. I'm looking to work for the new Meijer grocery store that is opening in August though. I want them to open and get the kinks out before I apply. I hate opening stores and know that quite a few of the original hires quit or are fired so they will be hiring again and that is when I'll apply.

Meijer is moving into WI? Wow! Meijer was founded in my home town of Grand Rapids, MI by a local man. I'm a Meijer girl from Day 1. In MI they have a good reputation for treating their employees well though that may have changed in the last many years for all I know. I still love shopping there and Manolo adores their cream Bismarcks.
:D

I am glad to hear you say that they have/had a reputation for treating their employees well. I hope it's still true. I'm pinning my hopes on them. One or two have already opened and the one I want to work in is opening soon. It'll be a 24 hour store!

Most of the new Meijers are 24 hour stores now...or maybe all of them are.
Good luck!
