And Chanie, knowing how many folk around here think my screen name is pronounced "Tontay", I'm going to guess that those same folks are figuring that your name is pronounced the same way that our Vice President pronounces his last name. Posts: 10397 | Registered: Jun 2005

Blayne, congratulations on the job. One bit of advice. Don't cut your finger on the meat slicer. It hurts like .

Derrell gives good advice. I have ultra cool scars on both my thumb and pointer finger of my right hand. Different incidents. You'd think I'd learn.
We had a theme song at my deli:
I'm a deli girl, In a deli world. I wrap in plastic, My life's fantastic! I slice meat and cheese, Make sandwiches and salads . . .
Erm, I don't remember the rest.

I've been lurking for a while, but the wonder of corned beef drew me out.
Umm...so I actually ran out to get some corned beef. Which, of course, must be eated on a kaiser roll with red horseradish and tomato. If you'd like to add lettuce and onion, that is also acceptable. Or if you are into mayonaise, you can mix it with the horseradish.
My dad is a big fan of the horseradish/mayonaise mix. In our house, we call in chrainaise (a joke on the yiddish for horseradish, which is chrain). I was 21 when I found out that was actually not its name.
In case anyone is wondering, my name is pronounced "Han-knee." It's the channukah/challah "ch."

My partner likes brocolli al dente. I like it softer. She complains that I like it "spreadable". <grin>
But stuffed cabbage is a major delicacy. Mmm...
