We have a couple of helpers (our nieces, Eda & Avery) in the Deli this week, we like to call them piglets. We gave them the project of writing our blog.
Any regulars coming into Holy Smokes BBQ Delicatessen may notice two girls behind the counter, not what you would commonly see here. Spunky little hens running around serving you. We are not local employees working for Leslie and Lou, we happen to have major connections. We aren't sisters, though we act and appear like them, close cousins can be like that, which is our relationship. Leslie and Lou are our aunt and uncle, and we have come to stay for about a week with them, to work at the deli and help prepare the food. Now, we may have not mentioned it but we do have names, Avery and Eda to be specific, you'll hear more about us as you read along. I am writing this on Wednesday, so working at the deli hasn't officially begun, but that doesn't mean we do not work yet. Seeing as the deli sells food, we must prepare the food, which is a Wednesday project. Wednesday morning is a little lazy for the two of us, catching up on The Glee Project and eating breakfast outside next to the pond while Lou and Leslie start getting the smoked meats prepared, taking pork butts out of the smoker, and pulling them for pulled pork. Yummmmmm. We get to package the pork into containers for your buying ease. Later we'll have more jobs and even a secret project ya'll see soon!
It's Avery here and I'm here to tell you all about myself. First of all, I'm the short one, (unfortunately) but I'm older. I happen to be 21, or so I wish. I'm really fifteen and from Loudon, New Hampshire. I live to dance and act, makeup is my addiction, and a very unhealthy one at that. I worked at Holy Smokes last year, so I know the trouble following my presence here. For those who came in and saw me last year, no, I am not a college student. Anyways...Wednesday is always the "we can be kind of lazy but we also have to work" day. We can get a later start, but end up working our pig butts off! SEE WHAT I DID THERE!!?!?!?!?! Thursday involves getting up a bit earlier, enjoying breakfast while we can and unpacking everything at the shop, definitely our busiest morning. Thursday also involves no cornbread for sale, sorry to you "bread made of corn" loving folks. Customers generally come in groups, like a mob or herd in the wild. Welcome to the jungle herding customers. I love, love, looooove talking to all you guys, I'm definitely not shy so don't be afraid to talk to me! Friday and Saturday are the easy mornings, seeing as things are packed up less and easy to set up, and all you jungle animals still generally come in mobs. Sunday is the late night, where we pack everything up, which can take awhile sometimes. Hey, guess what?!?! We usually have our coveted corn bread on Friday, Saturday and Sunday for all you fans. I always have fun here and love every second I get to spend with my aunt and uncle and all you customers. May the force be with ya'll.
