Holiday Sweets!

Today the workplace is continuing the food fest. Yesterday we had our department lunch, which we had to buy ourselves because the company is doing so poorly that they won't pay for department lunches. But they are paying for a companywide holiday dinner on Thursday, so we're not too bad off, I suppose. For the lunch, people brought in cupcakes and brownies and assorted treats for dessert.

I sit far away from my actual department in the midst of another department. By virtue of location, we are included in the other department's events. Today and Friday they are having sweet tables.

So far there are bagels and cream cheese, cookies, crackers and cheese... all store bought. Where is the joy of the holiday sweet table if everything is store bought? The cookies aren't even holiday cookies!
