An industrial size can.

Dear Counter Staff,

If I come in again and find more than ONE of EACH KIND of pie cut into, I am going to add some large cans of WHUP ASS to the next supply order.

And I have the can opener.

Thanks,

Riki

My boss actually okayed me leaving that note taped to the counter out front. There were THREE partial very berry pies in the case, and two each of blueberry and peach, and one or two whole pies.

Guess who had to bake fifteen pies on a day when she was only supposed to have to do breakfast?

I'm normally out of there by 9 AM on Sundays. Today, I was there until 2:30.

It wasn't a total waste. Since I had to be there to bake the pies anyway, I backed up some other things, so that I'll only be swamped tomorrow, instead of completely bulldozered. Baked off chicken breasts, roasted off a couple of trays of eggplant, made a batch of hummus, and planned out tomorrow's menu. If I'd been really ambitious, and wanted to stay longer, I'd have doctored up some Caesar dressing and sliced the chicken into it, chopped leeks, and maybe even diced up the remaining cantaloupes. But I was not feeling that ambitious, and Sunday is the dishwasher's day off, and I wanted to get out of there.

The sad part is, I know that tomorrow I'm going to have to back up scones and brioche dough as well as getting all of the produce put away and the regular lunch things done.

At least I've got my raise.
