Today was officially my second day as a bagel slave. Its not too bad of a job because every person who works there is really nice. I have learned to make espresso and sandwiches on bagels (no brainer). Also, I have done something I never ever thought I would really do which is dishwashing. I stick my hand down in warm cream cheese water and scrape plates, squirting them down with hot high powered water and then I reach my hand all the way to the bottom through pieces of onion and who knows what to pull out the drain stopper wrapped in a medical rubber glove. Quite gross if you ask me, and I catch myself making faces I just hope no one see them.

Now that I have a job its for sure that I wont be able to come home for Christmas. But since Kate is coming then I am going to have Christmas dinner at her moms house.



I just looked out the window and its snowing!!! My first snow of winter. My first Northwest snow. It is truly a magical moment, I am going to enjoy it!

I'll never eat another bagel without thinking of your colorful description of life at the bagel factory. Thanks!

Sorry we won't see you at Christmas but glad you landed a job.

Free bagels and espresso - sounds like my kind of job. As for that nasty dishwashing I'd be wearing double layer gloves that come up to my shoulders. Ewwww.
