Hallo every-body... :-)

I didn't know that it would be a difficulty to leave comments. If you would like to comment, but it is not working, you have to register with blogger. It's not hard, you just need your e-mail address, and a password. Suzanne clued me in on this..., she was not able to comment until she registered. You don't have to make a blog page, but you can if you want to. IT'S NOT HARD... I did it... I needed to ask for a little help from a friend, but mostly I set it up myself, and I'm not a wizard at this type of thing. So... I miss you guys, and would love to hear from you, but if I don't, I will keep typing away anyway. :-P

It's been hot and muggy here. I only have to go outside and I'm drenched... ICK!!! But that's the way it is.

Got a job too...

I'm waiting tables at a cute boutique just down the road from where we live. I'm waiting tables, making sandwiches, salads, sweet tea (it's a southern thing), washing dishes (bou cou dishes) and busing the tables, and doing cleanup.

Am also picking up a lot of cooking clues which is not to bad for someone who Does Not Cook!!!

Cut up a whole box of broccoli... was told, but Traci my trainer, that it was the best job she had seen... nice little bite size pieces for the broccoli salad. Was also told that it would probably be a good idea to cut them a little larger next time as it would probably be too hard (i.e. time consuming) for them to duplicate (even though I did it in record time) because once the customers had enjoyed it they would not settle for the regular cut. It was fun... I just thought about people I love, my son and daughter... and making them something delicious to enjoy. Jimmy, you would be proud... I used a huge knife and remembered the tips you gave me.

Also learned how to make a special Broc. Salad Dressing (a little sweet for my taste - but good nevertheless). It's not the same as Fifth Avenue's, in Carmel, but pretty good anyway. :-)

Never waited tables before, but sec'y/recep. does not seem to be hopping right now, and most jobs are miles away $$$ and the pay is very low compared to what I'm used to. So, with my little salary and tips, and not having to buy much gas, and the hours are good, 10:00 - 3:00, I figure it's not to bad. The best part is the people I work with... They all seem to be Very Nice!!!

HOWEVER, it is exhausting work... so next time you guys eat out, Remember Big Tips for your waitress!!! Unless she neglects you of course. :-)

Well, that's about it for now. XOXOXO to Everyone. G. :-D
