Root Beer Tapper On Shockwave

routine

"Who are you?" The seven dwarfs
said "We are dwarfs.
you like to stay with us?"
"Okay," said White enthusiastic
"What can I do for you?"
And the dwarves in unison: "wash, ironing, pulirai
ground, hoe the garden, cooking, mending,
wash the dishes, dusting, fetching water in
well and if you will advance you will be with us five minutes
in mine! "

(Job Covatta, Pancreas - Transplantation of the book Heart)


E 'I started my third week at work ... seems a century has passed!

's really a tough job, I have to admit! as Snow White, the work we do virtually everything there is to it, there are specific roles (eg cleaning woman or dishwasher) apart from a girl who prepares the food,
So my homework, and those of my colleagues are: to serve clients both at the table at the bar, prepare the dishes and drinks (yes, I make cappuccino, coffee, espresso ... mamma mia XD), wash dishes and do the dishes, keep the room in place etc. etc etc!
And when I close, which happens very often, I also have to clean all the equipment (eg, coffee machine, bread, oven), to fix the place, pick foods that go in the refrigerator and throw away those who can no longer sell, sweep and clean the floor, bring the gigantic garbage can until the end of the road and so on

short, the first few days were a real shock! I'm slowly getting used to the rhythm, even if foot pain is ^__^'

positive note, our colleagues are all very cute and funny!
Even if the manager does not pull at all, and even if they do not need help ^ ^
strange fact, there is not even an Englishman on the staff! We
French Poles, Hungarians, Slovaks, was an American girl (who unfortunately is due to go away, I'm sad because I loved!) .. and of course that I'm Italian ^ __ ^
believe that the most English of all is the manager, Lucien .. is French, but has now adopted a typical English tone of voice so low that it can be heard only by bats and some mythical creature! ^__^'



The restaurant is located close to home, and in fact the morning I walk (it takes me about 20 minutes at a slow pace) ... In the evening I go back to the bus, both for fatigue but also to laziness XD

the morning there is always something strange to look around, here is a little esempio:

- caffetteria/negozio italiano che ALLE OTTO E MEZZA DI MATTINA butta in strada un terribile odore di peperonata @___@
- omini del comune che spazzano le foglie a terra .. anche se c'è un vento fortissimo e quindi il lavoro è inutile !!!
voglio fare questo lavoro da grande ehehehe
- i postini con i pantaloncini corti (stile scout): Novembre, mattina, pantaloncini corti ... brrrrrrrrr !!!
- gente che a piedi attraversa strade trafficate letteralmente gettandosi fra le macchine che passano O__O
- numero 10 scoiattoli totali e numero 2 caprette che brucavano l'erba: passo davanti al cortile/boschetto di una scuola, e quindi c'è sempre qualche animaletto da guardare ^__^
- a beautiful dog, a mongrel cross Collie ... looks like a miniature Lassie *_____*
- cottages and villas are not beautiful, beautiful!
The district is very posh, so the houses are spectacular (and even the cars parked on the street) .. stuff that I went to see an estate agent and prices displayed in the window spoke of one million or two million pounds to buy one of these houses O___O
- people dressed in every way: from children in school uniform, women in suits evening (at 9 o'clock in the morning to the madmen ???), in shorts or flip-flops up to the women in high heels running 10,000 times faster than me that I have running shoes O_O
- A mad woman, as he runs to work, goes around the MP3 player with headphones in his ears, singing (only with lip) to the songs and scaring passers-by ... oh no wait, that's me !!!!!

Gallbladder Polyps Treatment

squirrels stuffed with mango

- scoiattlolo None were harmed during the making of this post -


No, not with this post I want to inaugurate a new section of my blog to talk about recipes scary
Later you will understand the meaning of the title! !


Yesterday was my day off (finally! We are a bit 'short-staffed at work, and then I have to jump on duty and 10 hours and 8.9 hours !!!), so I decided to make the tourists .. and more specifically to visit REGENT'S PARK!

Regent's Park is one of London's Royal Parks, is enormous and is 5-10 minutes walk from where I work .. was therefore required to drop by!

First stop, the "St. John's Wood Church Gardens" .. a park's small but very nice!



inside there is also an ancient cemetery, really impressive!



after that, I moved to Regent's Park!


start along the Boating Lake and the surrounding park, full of swans, ducks, gulls and a number of birds!



Passing through the Clarence Bridge to get in front of the Regent's College, but unfortunately you can only see from afar, because the entire perimeter is fenced and can only enter with a student card!



then decided to walk towards the Queen Mary's Garden ...




is all a blaze of flowers, especially roses!
is really beautiful, there are lots of flower beds with roses, a lot different from what the gardeners have added to the cards with the name.




I obviously step tuuuuutte long time to smell the roses ... I ended up a bit 'of a headache because of all this fragrance, but it was definitely worth it!


continue my stroll through the park .. the sun is going down and the light is beautiful!
Here I am in a small self-timer ^ __ ^



and a photo of the park here instead


I continue with my stroll through a park and education through the Avenue Garden .. less characteristic, but also their remarkable ^ __ ^


And finally ..... THEM!



squirrels!!



creatures are adorable!
inteligentissimi are, they have become accustomed to people and even know that almost everyone is willing to stretch some snacks .. so if you start to call (clicking his tongue on the teeth) and extend the hand they come to watch you got to offer!



I are provided with pieces of mango .. and they liked it so much and are stuffed properly (hence the title of this post )!
I stretched out my hand, and they approached me and took the piece of fruit directly hands ... dungeon!

soon will load the video that I shot with the squirrels .. allowing connection! ^___^


In conclusion: Regent's Park is really to see, is huge (I have seen about one third in 2-3 hours!) And is full of beautiful and unique things to see!
passed with flying colors!!
