Well, today was an absolutely terrible day at work, which is really saying something since work is usually kind of awful on a regular basis. To recap:
Of my total workload about 90% consists of mostly successful retail and travel campaigns with a sales executive that I love working with.
But as of today, due to company-wide reorganization, I am now no longer working with that sales executive or on any of those campaigns and have to transition them to another account manager.
Instead I am keeping (and getting more of) those other 10% campaigns in other categories that aren't performing very well, one of which canceled their budget with us just in time for our meeting with them this afternoon.
But everything is all better now, for the moment, as my sister has shared her red wine and stinky cheese with me to help take the edge off the day. Nothing like stinky cheese to make a bad day better.
According to the cliche, I know that when life gives you lemons you're supposed to make lemonade. But that's tomorrow's work. For right now, I'm going to lick my wounds and take advantage of the lemonade that my sister has used her time and talents to make today.
After all, that's what sisters are for, right?
About Me
- Manhattan Milkmaid
- My mother is the only adult I know who has ever ordered a glass of milk with her dinner entree at a restaurant. My father grew up in Wisconsin and drove a cheese truck. My sister's first word was "cheese." We know that it's time to go the grocery when we're out of butter, milk, half'n'half, cheese, and ice cream. So I guess milk runs in our veins.
Here are some of my dairy favorites:
Best milk for frothing: Organic Valley Reduced Fat 2%
Best Cottage Cheese: Horizon Organic
Best Butter Substitute: Brummel & Brown
Best Greek Yogurt: Kesso Foods
Best Non-Fat Frozen Yogurt: Stonyfield Farm Organic

You need a raise. Second, I highly recommend Fresh Direct's smoked aged gouda - it has just the right amount of bite and "crunchiness" (if you know what I mean... crumbly to the point of almost crunch) for a gouda, in my opinion.
