Happy New Year 2012 from Team SLAW.

Yes we are still here and thinking of ways to get Project SLAW back on the Map. Office lunched were fun, we starting with 4 times a week Nov 2010, went to 1 time a week in Jan 2011 and had barely done many since August 2011.
Laziness and Excuses.... Laziness and Excuses.  Well no more.  Especially since I started 2012 with a quote from Mark Twain. 

"The Secret of Getting Ahead is Getting Started", 

Starting Jan 2012, per Cash's recommendation we are moving to SLAW Monthly.  
Here is our schedule for Jan-Oct.
Jan – Cruz
Feb – Spa
Mar – Mr. X
Apr – Cash
May – Cruz
Jun – Spa
Jul – Mr. X
Aug – Cash
Sep – Cruz
Oct – Spa

We will still call our blog SLAW Weekly. Weekly postings will be about stuff happening to team SLAW while 1 week will be a write up about our office lunch.

So thanks Cash and MT (I am guessing its a cooler way to say Mark Twain).  

We are BACK!!!

Episode 46: Cash gives Mrs Cash a short warning; Spa derails Marrakesh Express.

Published: September 24th, 2011
It was Tuesday September 22nd, a grey cloudy day in NYC. I arrived at SLAW and saw neatly wrapped sandwiches sitting on top of paper mats, napkins and a big bag of potato chips wide open.  Cash did a good job.  GOOD JOB!!!
Spa and Mr X joined us shortly.  Everyone commented on what a great job Mrs Cash did with the presentation, all sandwiches wrapped individually in wax paper like a professional deli would do especially because she had to prepare these the very morning.  
The sandwiches were triple layered delights filled with cole-slaw.  Cash, Mr X and Spa had ones with ham and I had one without (thanks Mrs Cash) since I don't ham.  The last time we had these was during "SLAW on the road" episode dated December 22nd 2010. You can read all about Episode 18 here [Link to Episode]

 

 

Cash played the Art lecture but we soon discovered that no one was paying much attention so he stopped it and started discussing about Spa's trip to Morocco which at this point is only 1 week away. We also discussed a situation where Spa entered Cash's office one morning and called him a name, completely un-provoked.  Let us pretend that name rhymes with shopping bag.  Cash demanded SLAWpology and Spa ignored the request. 

Spa started talking about her trip to Morocco again.  I think Cash prompted her with a song and Spa taking the bait started singing "Marrakesh Express" by Crosby, Stills and Nash.  The singing was so off that it made Cash jump up and put the song on youtube so we all can hear the difference.

Great food, music, "shopping bag", SLAWpology, Spa's singing and Cash's rapid fire jokes made this a very good SLAW. 

Editor's Note: Mr X to the rescue, SLAW needs to get more healthier.

As I was diving into a bag of potato chips that Cash brought for Episode 46th, Mr X calmly asked me if I was "bulking-up".  That made me realize that I was starting to eat unhealthy again.  
Project SLAW was founded on the belief that by eating home-cooked lunch during a work day we can save money, eat healthy and enjoy office lunches.
That made me re-design our logo for SLAW Weekly and gave me an idea for my next turn at bringing in Office Lunch. Sorry Cash but I must.
Here's to a NEW Start at SLAW, a healthier SLAW.
(Lets see how long this lasts, I would give this one a week)
