I was working at a grocery store and this blind man wanted my help specifically because I helped him before. He offered me magic mushrooms as thanks.

this job is so stressful to me like. im doing okay im doing better than i started but ive basically been put into a pseudo management position with very little real responsibility other than "fix it" and "advocate for it" and even less power to make it happen but like. i Hate management and i have a hard time sticking up for myself and keeping a cool head when doing so, which means when someone who i Know doesnt do his job is giving me bullshit numbers its hard to know where to give ground and where to be firm. and this kitchen is a disaster but like other baking jobs have Such a high standard that like. would i even manage a job where the kitchen Wasn't a total sinking ship? ive got less than a year of baking experience, mostly in bread, and everyone wants pastry. a chef from corporate asked me if id been to culinary school and it was both flattering and made me feel like kind of a fraud. a sous chef (who i really liked but her last day is tomorrow) asked the same and when i said no elaborated that i carry myself and have the attitude of someone who did (in a good way) which was Also flattering but like. she sent me a pastry position she found online that wanted someone who knew how to do laminated pastry and it just. i feel so small!!! this is something i like a lot and the new head chef of the baking department says he can tell i have talent and im eager to learn and he knows i can do this and that im doing a good job so far but its genuinely so stressful i think about work constantly ive never worked a job where ive had this much expectation put on me.
plus its so insulting when they tell me my product "doesnt look good" bc theyre 1) premade frozen bullshit and 2) packaged poorly bc we have no other options. fuck off dude you come and make these shitty turnovers, asshole. i know how to tell when a cookie is done. fuck off. like i am the First to tell you when something ive made is not up to my standard, not in a self depricating way but in a constant effort to do better. i Know when the cookies are too dark. I know when the turnovers didnt get egg washed. i know when the batter was overmixed. i know when something is Off but i dont know the cause and know when to ask someone who should know more than me. i dont need you to tell me when something is off, Especially when like. it isnt lmao

Farmers market adventures this morning. Decided that for a change I was going to get all my produce there instead of the grocery store. There wasn't as much variety bc it's the start of the growing season, but I still found a bunch of stuff lol:
Produce: carrots, peas, cucumber, beans, cherry tomatoes, radishes, rhubarb, apricots
Meat: fig & fennel lamb meatballs, pickerel fillet
Drinks: fallentimber mead tea and Mariner's Mead (I love them but my nearby liquor store only stocks their original flavour mead so when I see their booth anywhere I gotta stock up), and Troubled Monk Saskatoon soda cocktails (been meaning to try those for a while)
Overall, a successful adventure, however I forgot that I'm supposed to bring something interesting for supper with mom tomorrow (dad might be having dinner with his cousin), so I might have to walk up to the little whole foods store (that also sells local produce) and grab something.

BREAD!
made my grandma's recipe, which I haven't done in a while. it's still the best-tasting bread ever to me (though I may regret this decision bc it's kinda crumbly and not very good for sandwiches).
