For whatever reason, we always end up talking about food at work. It's crazy making. It doesn't help that we have a potluck fest once a week in the training department. Today for my unit meeting I made a chocolate cherry pie with a chocolate cookie crust. Mmm, sour cherries and chocolate are the best combination ever. Tonight I need to start working on the dueling brownie dessert I'm making for Friday. (Box brownie mix is handy, I've discovered, to have a starting point.)

It is a comfort thing, I suppose. We eat and gather so that we are away from the caseloads.

Yesterday I ate breakfast tacos for dinner. I was astounded to learn that Mike has lived here for more than a year without ever eating a breakfast taco. (Though, one of my coworkers just admitted she has lived here two years without ever eating Amy's ice cream.) I had tacos with egg, potato, bacon and queso. At one point, I accidentally said potaco, because I couldn't get both words out fast enough.

Please to be genetic engineering a bacon flavor potato now.

Not that I am obsessed with your pie but you wouldn't happen to have any leftovers that need a good home?

It's a good obsession to have. She brought me some last week and it was AMAZING. I love chocolate and I love cherries; you can get that in Black Forest cake, and in those cheap-ass candies you see around Valentine's Day, but this was the first time I had ever had chocolate and cherry in pie form. It's ambrosia!

I will bring you pie! I have plenty of leftovers! :D Will you be at work on Thursday?

You know...I took Thursday off but it would probably be worth stopping by for pie.

Actually, I need a day away from there more than pie and it is less fattening. Thanks for the offer though. I am normally there M-F and would always be glad to help with pie disposal.
