spag day remix

well, another tueday in the books...and it wasn't much.  sold about half the spaghetti we have been doing on tuesdays.  a lot of times it's busy but ridiculously easy, cause it's 90% spag, and i just have to steam the noodles in the ol cleveland steamer (seriously, that's what it's called, it's got a big sign on it) for about a minute, then plate them and ladle on some sauce, which i have convienently placed on a burner right next to the steamer.  so it's a kind of bang-bang-bang thing.  i also made a huge double batch of beef stroganoff, cause we were going to run it wed night anyway and we had a busy as shit weekend and we're kinda low on burger buns, so it's better to run a lunch special that doesn't require buns.  i mean, i'm sure we'll sell our fair share of burgers today, but we don't get buns till tomorrow, so here's hoping...i think there's around thirty buns left and that is not very much.  anyway i'm happy about the stroganoff cause we have a good recipe, plus it's an easy as shit special too.  so 11:30-8 today, which on wednesdays usually isn't a problem.  it seems like the same shift takes longer on thursdays.  anyway, off to the salt mines....
