Comments on: Night Shift at the Bakery http://regex.info/blog/2010-07-04/1559 Not a photo blog. A personal blog with photos.

Except for your son, all the kids are wearing shirts showing English text. Do you find that unusual? Would you care to comment about why? <span class='jfriedl'>English is very common for shirts, for both kids and adults alike. It's often nonsensical. It's just a (long-running) fad... it used to be "cool", and now it just sort of is, I think. Anthony has them too (though most are from The States), just didn't happen to have one that day. On the other hand, it's extremely rare to find a shirt with Japanese written on it (except on tourists wearing "ICHIBAN" shirts) —Jeffrey</span> I have an observation about the first photo that sort of surprised me.

I mean, I'm grown up and if I make a batch of Chocolate Chip cookies, if 5 actual cookies survive dough-hood to make it into the oven it's a good day.

I particularly like the second photo "Too Many Cooks May Well Spoil The Broth". You have such a knack for isolating the subject in your plane of focus. I try my best to take photos like this, but I usually fail. Just a side thing, in your reply in the above comment, I think you meant to say "boogers" instead of "buggers" LOL. I'm in no way a spelling freak, but I was like, "buggers? What?". Then it dawned on me you probably meant "boogers". It just took me too long thinking about what "buggers" were until I realized you probably meant "boogers". I've been so busy with work that I haven't been checking out your blog as much as I would like to. When I do get the time to check out the blogs I like to check out, yours is the first I look at. Thanks so much for sharing. <span class='jfriedl'>I'll take it as a badge of honor that I didn't know how to spell "boogers". Thanks, I've fixed it. ;-) —Jeffrey</span> Fantastic photos.

Cute kids, cute post. Do the children eat cookies that were actually baked by the previous shift, or are they made by the staff? If so, what happens to the cookies that the children make? <span class='jfriedl'>I don't know, but I expect they're thrown away. They could never give them to someone else... they'd probably have boogers in half of them! —Jeffy</span> Hi, dear. Cute kids, cute post.
