You've all been so patient with me so I'll get right to it without a lot of storytelling. We had roast turkey with stuffing, sweet potatoes, green beans, and apple pie. Oh yes, cranberry sauce, did I mention cranberry sauce? So now you're thinking, at Easter? Roast turkey at Easter? About all I can say is, that's Edna. No point in worrying your eyebrows off about why she done it. She just done it and that's all.
I had other things to do before Easter than argue with Edna about the menu. Wait a minute, let me clarify that. No-one argues about the menu with Edna. She says that the menu is not a democracy. Not even Mr. Edward C. Slurry argues the menu with Edna. Though sometimes he gets his way with a little present. Mr. Edward C. Slurry wanted espresso and no amount of negotiating was going to convince Edna so he won the argument down and dirty style. Mr. Edward C. Slurry gave Edna an espresso machine as an Easter gift and it happened to come all certified for commercial and institutional use.
After she and Mr. Edward C. Slurry left that evening, Edna calls back over her shoulder, "Hey Jenn, figure out how much do we sell a cup of espresso for, will you!" I guess it's going to be $1.25 a cup and we'll see how that works out.
Thanks for coming by,
Jenn
