this is about crunch

Last night I put one red pepper after another on the gas burner and blackened them. That's always so fun! At the same time there was a big butternut squash baking away in the o. The best part of making soup is the whirl of the colors in the blender. Pureed the peppers & milk. Then the squash & the seasonings. Then orangeness mixing with deeper orangeness in the pot. I fried some sesame seeds- very crunchy on top.

A customer said to me today "It's people like you that are behind the demise of Wild Oats." This must have seemed like an appropriate thing to say
after finding out that we didn't carry Boulder potato chips.

The week of Wild Oats orientation & WFM orientation & working a PFDS shift & a WBODY shift is now over. I'm waking up at 5am to help Michelle plate some catering orders, but then... Sunday I'm sleeping in! It's been a little hectic. The people from Wild Oats were really very open and forthcoming in training. They still don't know what position they will be offered, or at what the wage that position will be set, but they were honest and interested in our own WF culture. Maybe some will stick around.

Tonight, after a bale with the now mohawk-less grocery extraordinaire D. Koenig, I drove at 70 m/ph to meet M. Menezes. Crab rangoon, spring rolls, M5, & F4 at the Vietnam Kitchen. I'm reading The Good Terrorist.
