Eleventh Rerun - Flies with honey

I've been here over two years now. It's a weird thing to notice.

Maybe I'm just getting used to this place. Scary thought. Maybe I'm just going crazy. I'm mad, you're mad, we're all mad style of thing. You don't have to be crazy to work here, but it helps.

Anyway, it's not here yet but winter's coming up. I don't know if anyone remembers Kitty, but she used to make cake for newborns. Which was pretty cool. And speaking of cool, the Hall of Beginning gets kinda arctic in the winter months. Which means we need warm clothes for newborns. And I was thinking if we could get volunteers to make hot drinks or something every day for the hall, and a heater to keep them warm, that'd be kinda nice for the poor new suckers who get stuck in this place.

That, and the greeters sure aren't gonna complain, believe me.

So, if anyone could donate a portable stove or something, and maybe a rotating volunteer cycle? Any warm drinks are going to go miles when the cold hits--coffee, tea, cider, hot cocoa, whatever.

Fortunately, we're switching to the warmer clothing sets starting late next week. Hot drinks sound nice- I wouldn't mind some cider during my shifts- but I'm not very good at [...] not burning milk.

I know one of my Guides brews hot tea for the newborns, but having options is a very good idea. I'll see if I can find something like a hot plate. That should be easy, right?

He's going to be serving scorched hot chocolate. Yum yum.

Big L?

You're welcome. I'll have a look in the Bazaar on my lunch break. Two years, that long huh?

It builds character

Ha. Yeah, I wouldn't forget something like that either. ...Hm, how many of these hot plates would we need? Two? Three? Backups would be nice.

It has been a while since I have seen your writing. Welcome back.
spandexisyouth: (This seems suspicious to me)

I cannot think of another reason someone would say welcome back.
spandexisyouth: (Er)

You are welcome?

Just one of those things I missed. But there's a lot of that.

Yes. That is what happens when you go away for a time.
