P.E.B.R. land
my two pizza men tonight had both wore the same satchel’s shirt with this guy drawn on the front. it’s a classic shirt which i should get reprinted. but i need to reprint the pirate shirts, some new colors on the lennie kesl shirts and maybe some keep it simple shirts too… and i’ve got a few new ones in mind i want to draw… so many shirts to draw, so little time.
tonight parker brought the staff from steamers in for a little employee appreciation dinner. that was cool to see. they make some great grub at steamers and i hope parker can pull off a second location on main street like he’s trying.
the owner of cafe gardens was in tonight too, and the sandy of sandy’s place, so i was told. i’ve never eaten at sandy’s place but now my interest is aroused… i also heard about a new place called the red onion i’d like to try and i must get out to trombone charlie’s in high springs cause i hear it is a great place.
tonight was smooth, steady and cool. i forgot ricotta on one pesto pie but that was about the only mistake i remember. and of all the toppings to forget, that is about the easiest one to remedy because it melts quickly on there and we just put it on and cook it another minute.
i took a quick break from the action tonight to pick out a birthday gift for a friend’s kid turning 5 tomorrow, back at lightnin’ salvage. i ran onto one of the employees, who wasn’t working, but buying a gift for a kid’s birthday party too… we ended up getting the same thing, the stacking robots which are very cool, especially since grown ups can enjoy them as much as kids…
velveeta underground was playing LSE and doing a mighty good job at it too. they are going to be a regular band around there. they fit the place nicely, and most importantly are really nice people. i got to hear the last song of the evening, an elvis costello tune, watching the detectives, played really well on a homemade upright bass and guitar… that homemade instrument was something to see. next time i’ll get a picture of it for the blog, it’s that good.
two days off makes life worth living, even if you love your job as much as i do…me and c are off to hot-lanta for a couple days to visit some old friends and check out ikea… and my mom is watching the kids – how sweet is that? there’s nothing quite as nice as grandmothers when you’re a kid, and again when you’ve got kids of your own…
love to all you cool people out in Pizza Eating Blog Reading land…
