Some years ago I was living near Killington, Vt. and attended an auction to benefit the Woodstock, Vt. animal shelter. ( No, That – was the other Woodstock.) But I digress. By that point in time I had been working as a Chef long enough to prove in any court that I was certifiably masochistic [...]Bottled Water

"Kathy,
Last February I posted about the glove dilemma. Please read: Gloves VS. Bare Hands
Many millions, perhaps billions, of protective gloves are thrown away, and seldom does one see any attention paid to the situation."

"Great method for a odious chore."

Spell check wouldn't have caught this mistake, but a good proofreader should have.
"...........pasta with "salt and freshly ground black people."
It's only a few letters off, but what a difference.
Proofread those menus and special inserts.

Ashley Howard said… - Hi Paul,
I just read your "Localizing & Greenscapes" article and thought that you brought up and interesting issue that many restaurants face about local food being more expensive and customers being broker. I just posted a comment on it about my thoughts, but I just wanted to swing by your profile and let you know that I appreciated someone bringing up an issue that rarely gets discussed. Cheers!

ScheduleFly is much easieer than you think plus they offer very accessible support. The cool thing is you can sample them with their 30-Day free trial with no obligation! If you're bit shy to try it... have one of your lead staffers use it with just one department for the 30-day FREE trial Our younger counter parts already use this type of technology and they could become your key players in making use of this technology in-house.
