Kitchen Side

I didn't work the register all that much today.  Nice change of pace.  I actually got to do a little work on the kitchen side and delivered a few sandwiches and fudge.  I enjoy being able to go and visit with the customers and to take the opportunity to talk to them and make sure everything was great. All reports back to me today were very positive.  I visited with one family that was new to the LBH and learned that he was in catering.  He told me that our food was great and that they will definitely be back. He said we knew what we were doing.  I love to hear those kind of reports.  We had another one yesterday evening by one of our employees parents.  They loved our food and are happy because that has been the one disappointment of Cedar City for them.  The food here just isn't that good.  These were Mikey's parents and they come up for his football games and several other things so it is nice to know that they now have a place they will come to eat when they are in town.  Very good.

Anyhow, working on the kitchen side is fun.  I made a few sandwiches, put together a few desserts including a couple of birthday hot cookie sundae's.  I delivered one to a group of elderly folks.  They were sure excited.  The birthday girl asked me what kind of ice cream it was.  She then went on to tell me that I was really cute.  See, it's not just the food that is good at The Little Brick House, that "really cute" single guy melts the hearts of elderly women on a regular basis.  It's not easy being such a womanizer.  Maybe I should clarify that as and elderly woman womanizer, or not. 

On another topic, I am missing the kids.  I have had moments when I think about them and it has been tough.  Outside of work I am really quite the loner and so I come home to myself.  Maybe that I why I work long hours.  It is hard.  Naturally it is a little bit of a break from laundry and cleaning and cooking and other things but it is also a break from the association and the time together that I love so much. 

I did go to the singles activity tonight.  It was a hike up the canyon a ways.  It was good though I had moments when I struggled there.  I have a hard time with new people, it is my shy nature.  Anyway, there were a few single ladies from my ward and so I hung out with them some and tried to mingle.  There were not that many ladies there.  I tried to be friendly and reach out to everyone but that can be outside of my comfort zone as well.  Other then those awkward moments it was an enjoyable evening.  I tried to invite a wonderful single gal that I know but she was unable to come.  Oh goodness, I will try again.
