Sons of bankers and diana, turn around and say good morning to the night. For unless they see the sky, but they can't and that is why, they know not if it's dark outside or light... (sing it, it works!)
********************************
I'm waaaay pooped. And I'm manic. I'm not sure which impulse to follow. Typical.
I worked my 7th shift in a row last night. Until 6:30 am. Normally, I work a short shift from 12-3 or 4. Nope last night my exhaustion was fed by a maniacal frenzy to rival any previous! I did the extra catering stuff, all the regular stuff, cleaned extra and prepped the most of the stuff for the fill-in baker tonight. Thankfully, the shift ended with Bill lovingly preparing my breakfast of Eggs, Toast & Potatoes, with Bacon please.
Then I slept like the dead. Really. Except I was baking. And all the *other* dead folk really liked my stuff. It was nice to bake for *them* for a change. Maybe that's some subconscious message that I *do* need to see the faces of those who enjoy my creations. Qacei asked for more carrot/walnut coffee cake (with cream cheese glaze over the strudel, of course), so I made it two days in a row. I think it's a hit :D I also did banana-nut bread muffins for her, too; with extra walnuts even! The favorite thing I made so far? The Maple-Walnut Scones I made in honor of my Canadian friends. I even glazed them with Maple and stuck a little Canadian Maple Syrup candy (from them) on each one before I put them in the case. Just sharing the l♥ve with my new town :D Oh and my *Bismark Muffins* (thinking of Steve!!) all sold too (SourCream muffins with a raspberry jelly filling with lots of white glaze).
Last night I wondered if Jon was gonna kick down for a chiropractor. Then I realized I'm lucky he's not charging me a gym fee for the work out I'm getting every shift!
Ack! I'm gonna park myself in front of the DVR for a few hours with some knitting....
I got projects goin' on :D

Wow. You've been crazy busy! Both with the cafe and knitting. :) Man your projects look awesome. Fabuloso!
I keep wanting to find some new yarn to knit with, but I keep walking out of shops empty handed...(no good yarn shops here!;)
Come on, you are making me reallly hungry and I could use a yummy Diana made snack while I am working on my paper.
You brought up that song in your meme months ago and I have listened to it so many times since. You reawakened my great love of sir Elton and a song I hadn't listened to much before. What food and knitting creations! I'm so inspired to bake, right now.
