| The prodigal's return |
We had a chance to go out for breakfast this morning and headed off to the American Diner on Route 12 in Plainfield. We have been going there for a couple of months since Central Village closed. The odd thing is there was only the cook. Yes, he was alone. He had already served two customers before us and then at least three more came in while we were there. It's really a big restaurant and I was surprised at this lack of help. I got our coffee and poured for another customer too. The cook came over to make sure we were doing okay when he had a break; he told us he had no access to the computer or cash register and he figured we owed about $15. He didn't make slips for anyone so we left him $18 and I put it on a shelf near the kitchen and told him where the money was. It seems a waitress had called and said she'd be a few minutes late but an hour had gone by and he was still alone. Qui sait?
Will go to Big Y and pick up the items I need for Sunday's Easter Dinner. I like to get a head start! P&D's Pop is at the high school helping out with the battery powered car and the stage props for The Wizard of Oz. Such a character I have married!
