Sammaches!
Feb. 16th, 2012 10:53 pmOne of my co-workers is selfishly leaving next week to have a baby and abandoning me to take over her position (or as much of it as I can do with very little training). Since my boss is a woman who has two young sprogs herself, we're of course taking a couple hours out of the day to throw a baby shower.
Despite how that sounds, I really don't mind. But between 4 different coworkers about to have babies, my boss just getting back from mat leave herself, and one coworker getting married on Saturday, I'm getting tired of talking about marriage and babies. Luckily I'm not the only one, though, as most of the field techs are as enthusiastic as I am about the entire conversation.
Anyways, we're all bringing stuff to nom on during the party, and I volunteered to bring sandwiches. Everyone is doing chili and meatballs and salads and a bunch of stuff that requires bowls and forks, and I figured finger sammaches to be the best option. Did 3 different types: ham salad, egg salad and tuna salad.
Uh, I think I made too much. Two in white and two in rye for each type for a grand total of 12 sammaches, cut into fours. I think there's maybe 12 people in the office right now, and a tonne of food.
Oh well, sammaches are good and leftover sammaches are even better! Even with baby conversations.
