Attendees: Chris, Gigi, Jehan, Greg, Sharon, Sarah
Today’s lunch has been dedicated as weird word day. Let’s see if it was as interesting in print as it was in person.
Chris: What is the best invention ever?
Reply: The wheel, sliced bread, the toaster that cooks and egg and toast at the same time?
Chris: Nope, the thermos. It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold. How does it know?
I know the answer, but it’s a lot more fun to just let Chris stew on these things for a while.
• A toaster oven doesn’t toast toast well. That was even hard to type.
• Ice cream cone shaped cupcakes
• Cone shaped cupcake cones.
Okay, it wasn’t as interesting in print as it was in person. Sorry.

Attendees: Tim, Chris, Gigi, Jehan, Greg, Sharon, Sarah, Theresa
• Due to his unwanted comments about Gigi’s fascination and adoration about the “fabulous ice cream scoop” he has been laid off internally from the group. He may continue to do work(?) but he is no longer welcome to join us for lunch. This is also due to him taking all the leftover enchiladas or mexican jello home and not leaving any for our next day lunch
• Armchair: definition. The arm of the chair. As in, Gigi, why are you wiping your hand on the arm chair?
• So if you get the super-fabulous at the 99 cent store, any guesses on how much it you have to pay for it?
• The ingrate of the day award goes to Sarah. After complaining about how difficult it is to cut the pizza, then proceeding to complain about the doughiness of the pizza, only after receiving “the look” from Greg does she remember her manners and thanks him.
• Overheard in the lunchroom.
Person 1: Where is the ice cream?
Almost everybody else: Um... maybe in the freezer.
• Also overheard. “Do you want to melt the brownies?” So how exactly do you melt brownies. I wasn’t aware that brownies are meltable.
• Thanks to Chris being internally laid off, we will be having a pot luck party. Chris if you are reading this, you can consider yourself not invited, and please do not read these anymore as you have been laid off internally. Go back to your “work”
• For all of those that participated in the pool, Theresa left the lunchroom at 12:37.
• After eating the strawberry ice cream it has been decided that there should be a strawberry level index, or SLI. This index will have specific examples of the level of strawberryness. A real strawberry picked at the height of ripeness will be at the top, and salmon will be at the bottom, because we all know, salmon does not taste like strawberries at all.
• Maybe we need to ease off of Tim, he gave up and left at 12:42. Really Tim, you did a good job at doing the birthdays this year. (was that good, did it sound sincere?)
