• So, i was at the antique shop selling a pottery set for the mom of the guy that i work with because she wanted it and i offered…and WOW…this story is getting way too long. 

  ANYWAYS…we’re going through all the pottery and she’s telling me what she wants and doesn’t and such and then this Jewish family comes in because the mom had bought her daughter an antique cheese plate for hanukkah and wanted the antique store lady to tell her about the piece she bought her.  Afterwards the lady asks the kid, who looked like 10 at the oldest! what kind of foods she likes and she replied…”oh, you know the fine foods like cheeses, crackers, olives…”

  i don’t get it.  the mom then said that for hanukkah she bought her a cheese tasting session at the next door cheese shop and don’t get me started on the other daughter…

  I don’t understand…I thought people my age got classier and into more expensive foods which was weird for me, but for 10 year olds?!?  Don’t get me wrong, i enjoy finer foods and they taste SO delicious, but wow…

  To follow up on my sister’s bakery story, I ask my father if he’s really serious about following up with this bakery idea and he was like, “yeah, i think i would be good at it.” 

  me: oh, you mean like the business stuff and all that.
  dad: No, the baking. i think i would be good at it.
  me: but you’ve never baked in your life!
  dad: so? your sister can teach me.

  sister…you’ve got a huge task in front of you….
