Cake Club June

Alice enjoyed writing last months Cake Club letter so much that I insisted it was my turn now. I’m Jess, the eldest and bossiest of the four daughters and I feel my skills are especially important within the Meg Rivers team. I would say essential on a Monday and Friday morning, as it’s my first job, after dropping my daughter Poppy off at nursery (run by my Auntie Penny – this family gets everywhere!) to make tea and coffee for the crew. This morning, whilst I was still eating breakfast, - I received a panic phone call from Dad, who’s voice was a little trembly, announcing that the staff canteen (a sink, a fridge, and a kettle) was out of ground coffee, and would I please collect some on my way in to work?

I’m sure it’s the same in work places across the country but it’s no easy job fulfilling the tea/coffee making role here. Liffy has to have Lady Grey, Alice and I Earl Grey, Dad has all caffeine products without milk and insists on his special mug special. Mike just has to have his quickly!

In our team meeting last week the tea/coffee/snack implementation took almost as long to organise as the meeting itself. Dad always gets grumpy around coffee time as we are surrounded by delicious cakes and traybakes and yet we end up eating M&Ms – didn’t stop him finishing off the pack of course.
