We get free muffins. Actually baking the darn things is a
coals-to-Newcastle move that never goes over well. The
boss has brought in hers (or some family members') a couple
of times, and we've finally trained her out of that habit.
Now *I* make these amazing Chocolate Chip Squares . . . .
The meetings don't flow any better (what with the sugar buzz
and all, but they're wonderfully well attended -- just last
month we had two people from the company upstairs . . .not sure
how they got past the door security. . . .)
