sigh. [yeah, me too] And you thought this was going to be a fun post. giggle
Here's the scoop:
Last week Pooldad took in another of our luscious leftovers [his manicotti] to work for lunch. Most of his co-workers order out. He is the only one that brings his lunch. He has a tendency to "stink up" the office with what he brings when he heats it up.
His boss [the owner] noticed it and said "Pooldad I am feeling fried chicken."
You know what this means, right?
Pooldad looked at his boss, smiled and said "Let me check with Skippy." Before bossman ever heard the answer to "checking with Skippy" my husband had a giftcard in his hand and a request for fried chicken and all the fixins'.
Which means that I am making a boatload of fried chicken in the morning. Which also means that I have to be awake, coherent and able at 6 am.
Goody.
So, no late night chats. No middle of the morning blog rolling. I need to go to bed.
Isn't there some kind of codicil that states that bringing in fried chicken to work said employee deserves a raise?
ETA: 6:00 AM - I am awake. And knocking out 25 pieces of chicken. I love my husband. :D
ETA: 10 AM - Ta Da!
Coleslaw, corn muffins, mashed taters with gravy, chicken and key lime pie. I am done. See ya' on the flip side Tadpoles. [Breakfast was awesome, btw.]

I vote for the raise! I used to cook for my techs when we had other other business ....... every Wed. I knew all the food allergies and who preferred what. It was like having 10 big kids!
i would think so (raise). the gift card should have had a bonus on it.
get some rest. i'm headed to bed shortly myself.
I think a raise is definitely in order!
Yes! Yes! Yes! (thought that responce went well with your title! ha ha!)
Definitely should get a raise!
LOL, a raise would be nice. They must really like your cooking there. How nice of you to oblige.

Does he deserve a rais? Yes. Why: Becaue I say so.
(That always works around here)
So if you send me a reply to this, there better be a good reason. I don't want to be in trouble with pooldad
Wow! You deserve some kind of AWESOME WIFE award, and YES I agree with the raise!! BTW...I'm really hungry this morning. I'm not sure where you live, but I think if I just follow the smell of delicious fried chicken I'll get there...Save me a piece! :)
I am sure that will be one happy bunch.
you are a much better woman than I am Skippy! :D
I think you need to share the chicken recipe!
And aren't you the sweetheart to make it for all!
I'll take some, too!
you are a good woman to be doing this
I officially need a wife!... or maybe just a personal chef Lol. You rock! and I'd say he definitely deserves a raise.. and so do you.
oh..my...GOSH! You win Woman of the Year Award. and Wife of the Century!
omg how can you get up so early and knock out all that!!! I need at least 5 cups of tea before I function lol Pooldad def should have a raise
You are amazing for doing that at 6am...I wouldn't have done that unless forced to by the thing called my mom haha.
I imagine fried chicken isn't too hard to make (I don't know how to make it)
