OMG it's freezing here at the moment, I'm so glad I have an exercise bike. I think the wind is coming straight off the snow. Brrrr :(

Well it is 7.15 am and I have already done a basket of ironing.
Off to look at potential property for DD. 5 1/2 hr round trip if no hold ups!

I just got home from a work placement at the hospital. It was great, working in the kitchen and menu office alongside the dietetic assistant. So great that I'm going to apply for a job as a kitchen assistant ;D

You could use that as a selling point in the job interview. "I come with my own thermomix!" ;-)

I've been sorting through and photographing some old clothes to sell today. And watching some movies.
I resigned from my job earlier this week and start a new one on Monday so I'm enjoying having some time to catch up at home and relax a little also.

It's also good to be able to check in on the forums because otherwise I can't get near them during the week, and lucky to some weekends.

Thanks everyone :D I think I made a good impression on all the kitchen ladies because they seemed to like me :)

I just got home from a work placement at the hospital. It was great, working in the kitchen and menu office alongside the dietetic assistant. So great that I'm going to apply for a job as a kitchen assistant ;D

I'd love to take TM up there! Imagine all the yummy food I could make for all the poor people in hospital... :) I was thinking soup, custard, casseroles, porridge, pasta dishes, risotto... I think I would need a TM army to feed everyone though! :-))

You will do well DFD. It's alll good experience and to put on your resume. Even if you have to give your time without pay.

Thanks DFM :-* I wouldn't mind working without pay, sometimes the experience means more than the dollars ;) ;) And I loved the experience I had today. I'm still thinking about it and wishing I was going back tomorrow :)

Good luck with the application for the job Amy - they are obviously looking for staff?

Thanks Judy! :D They're desperate for staff. All the casuals are working almost full-time hours. I would love to help them ease the load, and it would be great experience for me particularly with what I'm studying :)

I wish you were in the kitchen when I was in hospital. The food was horrible. The meals were outsourced, so it was all about keeping the costs down, and it showed. Some of the meals were inedible. I didn't mind too much, because I didn't have much of an appetite, but I was nursing and fighting one hell of an infection & recovering from a nasty caesarian, so I should have been eating! I would have LOVED some of your custard, Amy! ;-)
