I forgot to say there would be a choice of ham or turkey, both with swiss cheese. And a choice of white or wheat bread, but there will be more wheat than white; deal with it.

There will be lettuce. Whether or not there are tomatoes depends on the price of the current crop.

You are SOL on bacon I think.

A bit of mustard, perhaps?

I'm not going to complain with fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies on-hand, though. If I start to complain, just shove a cookie in my face.

Better not complain or face the wrath of SWMBO - She Who Must Be Obeyed! :shock:

LOL. I totally understand. Try to find a decent sized red pepper for under $2 a piece. Luckily I've got a good produce stand across the street from the office.

We have lettuce and tomato, mustard and mayonaise, wheat and white bread, ham and turkey, and swiss cheese.

You'll have to supply your own bacon if you want a club sandwich.

Tomorrow we will be making soups and baking more than 6 dozen cookies!

I was going to make brownies as a surprise dessert, but I guess I don't have to anymore!

Feeling like absolute hell this afternoon. Feeling a bit better tonight so I'm hoping I still make it tomorrow. Right now I only give it about a 75% chance I'll make it. Just wanted to give ya'll a heads up if I don't make it out. I'll be so ticked if I can't make it. I got new vinyl for the car and a new exhaust to try out (had to replace the cats). :oops:

Crap, looks like I'll be making brownies when I'm done with my paper. I'll figure out the toilet paper issue.

Alexis, just kidding about the brownies. We have 100 jumbo cookies. There were 103, but somehow 3 of them disappeared shortly after dinner. Yellow_Colorz_PDT_08

After picking up the trailer we made two BIG pots of soup, 100+ cookies and we the last of 32 breakfast empinadas are in the oven. We are just about ready to head to bed so we can get up at 5:15 to drive to Brooksville.

I would like to apologize profusely for my nonattendance today.

We lost power last night, which reset my alarm.

It was a blessing in disguise, however. Shortly after I woke up, my boyfriend called to tell me our puppy was having seizures. We rushed him to the vet, where he still resides as of this post. We're hoping for the best for him, but won't know anything until later today when all of the tests are finished.

I am extremely sorry for "dropping the ball" today. I am confident in saying that Ed put on an amazing autocross today, even though I haven't heard anything of it yet, and am very upset that I could not attend. I wouldn't have made it before the gates closed.

I hope there are no hard feelings. I plan on purchasing a battery powered alarm so this will not happen again.
