Gizzie made homemade salsa - mango pineapple salsa
|
Sweet, thank you very much, Panda ^^
Your salsa sounds delicious, Gizzie. |
LOL! i feel ya, panda. no rest for the wicked...or the working class @_____@
|
unless i request off, or there's a federal holiday in the week, i usually work 7 days a week.... but it's only 9-3 Mon-Thurs, 9-1 most fridays and saturdays, and then 3ish to 7:30 p.m. on sundays. so i'm home at night for the most part.
|
nice ^___^ i mostly work mornings too..5pm at the very latest.
|
i'd really rather not have to work 7 days a week though....
|
nods. it sucks having to work work work work work....LOL! i know, speaking for me, my body doesn't like it and it takes a couple days of doing nothing to recover from long weeks :(
|
oh i hear you there, too! friday, saturday and sunday i work in retail at a register. even though it's only 4 hours, my legs are sore until the next day. *sigh*
|
ugh! no bueno! i think i actually prefer cashier at my job *i do it one or two times a week* except the whole donation thing. i have to ask everyone if they want to donate a $1 to whatever thing we're raising money for that week. i'd rather just whip through the line and get it done. xD
|
i cashier at michael's... which i blame for me learning to crochet. XD
|
ROFL! i used to be a stocker/recovery person at a place in cali called beverly's. very similar to michaels but with a fabric dept. towards the end, i was helping cut and fix up that dept, so i blame that on my skills of sewing xD
that was many many years ago. now i'm a stocker/part time cashier at one of the local dollar trees. |
my mom taught me to sew when i was in middle school. and then shortly after i finished college and got married, i worked at a local fabric store called Cloth World. but about a month or so after i started working there, they were bought by JoAnn's! (we bristled at all the craft stuff... we were a fabric store, not crafts!!
|
bwahahahhaaa! i liked working the fabric counter. the other ladies were super nice and helpful ^__^
i knew how to basic sew, but never worked off a pattern before or did alterations @___@ a few years back, i managed to make a lolita-style dress i saw online *front and back photos* from like 4 different patterns i had. came out nearly perfect too. i changed the tight sleeves to kimono-style sleeves, that was pretty much the only major differences between the one online and mine. that and it was MY size not some 00 size for the pretty asian girls that get to wear the pretty lolita fashions xD *jealous much of them? why yes, yes i am T_T * |
i got a little more pay at Cloth World than some of the other employees because i did have sewing experience.
i don't even know when i started tweaking sewing patterns, but i've mixed and matched sleeves; tops and bottoms of shirts and skirts/pants; tweaked dresses to make five different looking ones from the same pattern.... and that carried over to my crocheting too! |
NICE! i can't crochet to save my life, but i can knit a little. they say it's very similar, but it's too complex for my brain to handle D:
|
thanks!
i can 'knit' - that is to say there's a crochet technique called Tunisian crochet, which has a knit stitch. i made a cardigan that looks like it was knitted..... but it was made with this crochet technique. XD |
