Yardies, at home and a farrin' (Part 4)

anyone ever do the secret shopper???? i signed up for it and took their VERY hard tests if you did it...how was it...

I did do this and it was so much harder then I ever imagined. For one thing, you had to remember every single little detail.....names, dates, times, questions they asked you, what you browsed, prices, blah, blah, blah......it was neverending. I had to literally fill out a 4 page report after each visit. All of that without being able to take any notes so you wouldn't tip off the stores. I had a hard time with their time frame too. They kept sending me to restaurants after 10 p.m. when I had to be at work very early the next morning.

I finally just gave it up.

You ladies spoil. I told Andre he was the better cook so that was his job. I maybe cook once a week and only if he has the later work schedule.

Cornmeal porrige is awesome with evaporated milk, fresh coconut milk adds a nice little wrinkle, also butter.

Hey All........ I received the IV bill yesterday in the mail.....Going to send it back out today.....Hopefully we will receive instructions soon to send in the application itself.......Andrew is getting more excited as the time draws near........To get him home for Christmas would be the best thing!

Anyway...the above receipe is dead on for cornmeal porridge! Just don't forget to keep stirring... or it will get clumpy and lumpy! Keep the fire low after you put the cornmeal in...Viola!! Yummy Yummy...I used to make it for my sons when they were babies, usually at the 10-11pm feeding...when they turned 7-8 months...I used their formula instead of milk!

Trust me Rhonda, it's something to keep in mind...cause it holds them! My sons slept through the night after they had their cornmeal bottle! And Mommy could finally get a full nights sleep!

I better start practicing now I'm not much of a cook! You said you put it in their bottle? Is it that thin that it would flow through or did you make it thinner for them? I've never eaten it so I have no idea what to expect. I might surprise Tony and make some before he gets home from work one day!

When I put it in my son's bottle, I had to cut the opening a little bigger so it would flow through. Because of that, you have to make sure they don't choke.

...I was about to type the same thing! But, you do have to be really careful about how large you make the whole in the nipple...just like you said JG...Baby could choke! The other thing Rhonda, I wouldn't introduce cornmeal porridge until 7-10 months old. The baby cereal is fine before that, but cornmeal can be hard to digest for a little, little baby.

I had a friend that did that. She liked it. She mainly went to restaurants and bars, so really how bad could it be if you're getting paid to eat . She just said the $$ was slow, because she got paid by the gig. And the price for each gig was different. But extra $$ is extra$$ in my eyes.
