ok, so i am listening to ani defranco and indigo girls singing midnight train to georgia....good old song.......i am so exhausted that i am blowing off sunday school...........i will take scw to the bus at 11, then drive to louisville.......i have cooked everything for monday lunch so my workmates need only warm up soups, quiches, etc.......i appreciate this gesture, as they will have 3 carryout lunches and 1 dine-in special supper for 20 that they are covering for me......however, going with scw to governor's cup is a tradition.......we always have lunch at a mall on gcup monday, then shop until awards ceremony.........that is, if there is time....the 8th grade season, when they won the state, there wasn't time for either shopping or lunch, and we were so excited we didn't stop to shop on the way home.....i am up for anything this weekend...mostly glad that i will have 2 full days off and someone else is cooking.......back to the restaurant.....supper last night went very well......we fed at least 80 people, and it went smoothly...and nobody drank too much, and most everybody ordered a glass or bottle of wine with dinner, and nobody complained......ecw's saturday running group was 'treated' to someone ranting about his lousy dinner on friday night at trc....the salmon was dry as a biscuit.....and when ecw challenged him regarding praising publically and critisising privately....this joker insisted that he had, in fact, spoken to the kitchen about his meal......when i followed up with the schotts, he had, in fact, been in the kitchen twice on friday night, both times insisting that his meal was the best he had ever had in danville..... the schotts are furious, as he is an aquaintance of theirs...... sue schott has been promoted at lowe's, so we will be hiring a sous chef to help rob, as well as an extra kitchen person to make salads and appetizers......that is what i have done non-stop for the last three nights.....the volume looks to be enough to justify someone doing this job so i do not have to work 14 hour days forever....gentle readers, if you know of anyone who wants to work thursday, friday and saturday evenings, (5 to10) let me know........we prefer someone with culinary experience and/or talent..........ok, so i am listening to guster all the way to heaven....which is very sweet..........scw has been quite busy with downloads, and we now have an eclectic mix of music to accompany my blogging........which is catharsis on my part.......i do not blog things i want or need people to know, but things i need to get off my chest and out of my head........too many things in my head as it is.......
