yea, he's gonna kill me for this
like i'm scared..pfft. he seems to think that since everyone on NN knows it's his bday, it's somehow MY fault. FFS....i didn't tell anyone!!! geeze..
anyway, as he his loathe to celebrate at all, and he HATES cake...what's a cake lady to do?? ma PLAN was to make him a huge pan of his favorite, baklava. until i was called up for jury duty! DAMMIT! this morning i get a brain child. while inferior, there ARE other bakeries in town other than ma own. so i start calling. luckly the first i called had baklava AND were close to work. i pick it up on ma lunch hour.
the owner, who was entirely too smug and snotty about selling a product to another bakery "owner" made sure i knew this baklava was "hand-made...by a GREEK guy" i said, "imagine that! the baklava IIII make is handmade....by a GREEK girl!!" heheheheheh she passed me off to her clerk as i think i might have pissed her off a bit.
her clerk was telling me that it's true! *blank stare at this blonde bubble head in front of me* it REALLY is made by a greek guy. and it's FRESH! they order a bunch, then put it in the freezer...so mine might be a lil hard and cold. WTF?!?!? LMFAOOOOO!! the dictionary definition of "fresh" is baked within 24 hours. i held ma tounge and said, "wow, so it's really fresh then, huh?" meantime, the owner is shooting daggers at her clerk...it was PRICELESS...
sadly... i might have to throw the entire box in the trash. dum said it was better than mine....this is sacrilege, even if i xxxxxx him to give me his honest opinion. hehehehehehehe
