1. My "snow boots" really don't work that well on snow. Perhaps they should be called "slip-a-lot-on-snow boots".
2. Sometimes, when the hot cocoa machine says "Stop when 3/4 full", you should stop at 3/4 full. If you don't, you may be reprimanded by kitchen staff and will end up with burns on your fingers.
I hope this newly acquired knowledge is helpful.

This question needs a quick preface.
I have been very tired lately, and although I enjoy pop and coffee, I am trying to limit my caffeine intake.
My solution: try a multi-vitamin. My mom always made me take vitamins growing up whenever I was acting particularly tired, so this seemed like a natural step. When I was little (ok, through college) it was was gummy bear vitamins, but seeing that I am turning (gulp) 27 next month, I thought it was time I took a grown up vitamin.

every time I am grown up enough to take my vitamin, and I feel pretty good about system. Plus, it is a great conversation starter here in our offices at Kensington.
So my question for the world is this:
Does anyone else reward themselves for doing tasks? If so, what are the tasks and what is the reward?
