Good day
It's Friday. And you know what that means? Work Christmas party this afternoon!
Looking forward to it. It's a glorious day, the sun is shining, it's supposed to hit 30 degrees (90F). I am sitting in my office watching them setting up the tents and stalls outside.
This year we are having a literary theme. Everyone dressing up as a character from a book. They close off the street leading into work, and set up food stalls down both sides, there will be a band and a parade and wine, beer, free-flowing soda. And the menu looks delicious. I have reproduced it here for you:
ADVENTURE
Call of the Wild Kebabs - Wild Meat, Beef, Chicken, Vegetarian
Served in a bamboo boat on a bed of basmati rice with various sauces to include
satay, sweet chilli and minted riata
CRIME
Chilli Dogs
“Gum shoe” shoestring fries with“blood on the floor” tomato sauce
“Cops in the coffee shop” doughnuts
TRAVEL
Paul Theroux Spring rolls, samosa’s, Vietnamese rice paper spring rolls
Sushi selection
SCI-FI / FANTASY
Hobbit pies
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy Chicken Croquettes
Cosmos Salad, - In containers Cos lettuce and assorted salad ingredients
from beyond the asteroid belt
ROMANCE

Mini Lemon meringue tartlets
Friands

Sunshine, music, good food, pleasant company, and no work. What could be a better way to spend an afternoon?
