i am not complaining, definitely not complaining, but i can hardly wait til this weekend is past. i know it’s the balloon festival, and the taste of the north country, both admirable undertakings and a lot of fun. but we at samantha’s catering are sooooo busy this weekend that we won’t be able to look skyward for much more than strength to get the work accomplished and the clients totally satisfied. we will start at 2:30 am on saturday with breakfast for 45 workers doing the behind the scenes stuff for the balloon festival. then, at 1:00 the girls head to a catered affair outside of warrensburgh, actually a wedding reception. i will stay at the cafe for a 2:00 pick up of many hors doeuvres for another party. the client really wanted delivery, but we are lacking a vehicle so i gave them a discount for picking up their food. at 5:00, the balloon festival workers will pick up dinner, and then i will head toward bolton for an anniversary party drop off at green harbor. that is saturday. and at noon on saturday, i will walk to the farmers’ market (we won’t be participating this saturday), to clean the bathroom as it is our assigned week. that may be just the break i need from cooking! Sunday begins at 2:30 with repeat breakfast for the balloon workers. i will meet with a client around noon and at 1:00, someone is picking up food for 25 for a baptism. and again at 5:00, the balloon folks will come to pick up their dinner for 45. this is monday evening and i am already looking forward to going to bed early on sunday! i am not complaining. it has been a wonderfully busy summer and hopefully there have been many satisfied clients.
