Any news, ita?

I like Jeni's but agree it's way overpriced. They sell it here at the Gelsons for $12 I think.

Good luck, ita

I know it's not PC, but I really prefer the cage-raised ice cream.

More butterfat?

I heard Jeni (I think, someone with artisanal ice cream) on the radio last week or so. I didn't catch the part where she said what madew her ice cream so good, though (I mean, I think they teased that they were going to talk about that next, and then I parked, something like that).

If one more person replies-all that they are still getting the 'down' message, I'm going to strangle the lot of them. OF COURSE YOU ARE. THE PERSON OPENING ACCESS HASN'T DONE IT YET. Have you not noticed the LACK OF AN EMAIL FROM HIM???!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just don't want to push their hand...but I need to know. I have to make plans.

As a person doing hiring, I apologize to all candidates for the fact that I will be 100% ready to do something either way.... but I need approval from someone who is travelling this week.

I am so irritated. They finally hired a guy to fill the position we have had open since May. He started last week, been training piecemeal. I never got put on the google docs or e-mails about the schedule for when it's any particular persons turn to train and in what, so when he showed up today at my desk I was all "Wha?". Sadly, the thing I was supposed to show him I did in the hour before he came in, because I didn't know.

So now I have access to the schedule and I'm not on it except for today. Gah.

Not to mention that I am swamped today from trying to cover my one co-worker's accounts since her father just died (that is not anyone's fault, obviously, it is just more work for me to try to do while I don't know about the stuff I was apparently scheduled to do today...)

And I forgot to turn my crockpot on when I got here, so who knows when my lunch will be hot.

I've been told that too much butterfat in ice cream coast the tongue and blocks much of the flavor. Don't know if that is true or not.

Isn't that what wine's for?

....I am now understanding why one coworker has less responsibility than I might have thought. She's smart and well-meaning, but doesn't quite take the extra step needed before asking for help.

Fat is usually an excellent means of carrying flavor. I suppose it's possible to have too much, but i would need a demonstration to believe it.

Just won a covered cake pan for being able to read one of our reports correctly, so I guess today is looking up.
