Bad Sweater/Crock Off/Open House

Filed under: Life,Work — Jason Haberman @ 9:12 pm

Today was Wirestone’s holiday function.  It consisted of a Bad Sweater party, coupled with a Crock Pot cook off, all in our recently remodeled office which we opened for all to see.

Frankly, it was a hell of a time.  I brought my now-famous Stroganoff Dip which was a gigantic hit with everyone who tried it.

I bought a horrible acrylic sweater at JC Penny’s yesterday.  I figured $15 was enough to spend on a joke.  The office was absolutely filled with the most horrible collection of sweaters ever collected in a single location.  If it wasn’t so amusing, it would have been horrifying.

But, we had a lot of beer, wine, hot buttered rum, mulled wine and an open bar.   It was a nice turnout.  Jess came by as well as my folks.  I was able to show everyone where I work and give them the nickel tour.

I, personally, started drinking at about 1:30pm and the party didn’t start until 3.  I spent the morning help set up and get everything setup.  So, I figured I earned a beer…

Anyway, it was a great party and I can’t be happier to work in such a terrific place.   Keep you fingers crossed that I won the crock-off… watch this space for updates.

Happy Holidays!

  2. The stroganoff dip was most definitely my favorite part of the evening. I can’t believe that I have lived nearly 30 years without that dish until last night :) I NEED to get that recipe from you…of course then Craig and I will be in danger of having it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for weeks until I get sick of it! You definitely got my vote, and it will be a shame if you didn’t win the crockoff.
