Twas a soggy foggy day, with a damp cool night forecast. There was a meeting to be held today but at 10:30am, Boss dropped two dozen of Dunkin’s finest and told us to have at it, meeting was rescheduled for next week.
There was five of us. We filled our coffee cups and began the feast. At noon we broke for lunch, each of us eating our sandwiches/microwave entree’s/cans of soups. At 1pm we returned to the table, each of us serious and determined as we reached into the colorful boxes and withdrew our catch, to return to our desks to nibble and work, work and nibble, returning to the table when we finished with our nuggets of sugar and dough.
At 2:45pm, we had victory in sight, only three remained. We were confident that none of the doughnuts would last the day.
Then we got the popup reminders on our computers. Today we celebrate the January birthdays. Cake and ice cream at 3:00pm.
This is a scheduled task. We dare not shirk it. We each had a regular serving of cake and full sugar, full fat Publix ice cream, savoring this until 3:30pm. We notice the cake is quite large.
“Oh yeah, well the bakery messed up. They gave us a half sheet, but we only ordered a quarter sheet.”
One doughnut survived the day. A jelly. Half of the cake remains......
Breakfast..........
