Memo: Team Lunch Ideas for Next Week<br>
<br>
From: Jamie, Office Coordinator<br>
To: All Staff<br>
Subject: Suggestions for the upcoming team lunch<br>
<br>
Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
Hope you're having a good week. I'm putting together options for next Thursday's team lunch and wanted to gather some ideas. The weather is supposed to be pleasant, so perhaps we could consider something that feels a bit like a picnic, even if we're
indoors.<br>
<br>
I was thinking about a build-your-own sandwich bar. We could get a variety of breads – maybe some ciabatta rolls, whole grain slices, and even gluten-free options. For fillings, roasted turkey, ham, a couple of vegetarian choices like grilled veget
ables and hummus, along with all the usual toppings. It's usually a crowd-pleaser because people can customize.<br>
<br>
Another idea is a large, shared salad with different proteins on the side. Something like a kale and quinoa base with roasted sweet potatoes, chickpeas, avocado, and then separate bowls of grilled chicken, salmon, and tofu. With a couple of dressing
options.<br>
<br>
Or, if we want something warmer, a soup and bread station. A couple of different soups – a hearty lentil or minestrone and a lighter tomato basil. Served with fresh bread and butter.<br>
<br>
Let me know your thoughts by end of day tomorrow. Please reply to this thread with any preferences or other suggestions. Also, don't forget to note any dietary restrictions so we can accommodate everyone.<br>
<br>
On a separate note, has anyone tried that new recipe for lemon bars that was circulating last month I attempted it over the weekend and found the shortbread crust needed a few more minutes of baking than the instructions said. The filling was quite g
ood, though. I added a tiny bit more lemon zest than called for, which gave it a nice bright flavor. My family enjoyed them. I'm always on the lookout for reliable dessert recipes that travel well, for potlucks and such.<br>
<br>
Back to the lunch planning – we should also decide on drinks. Iced tea, lemonade, and water are standard. Does anyone have a preference for a particular type of iced tea The herbal peach blend was popular last time.<br>
<br>
I'll compile the responses and send a final plan by Wednesday morning. Looking forward to your ideas.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Jamie<br>
<br>
P.S. Remember the department meeting is at 10 AM in the main conference room. We'll be reviewing the quarterly goals. Please bring your updated project summaries.<br>
<br>
Conversation snippet from the break room earlier:<br>
Alex: Did you see the market had those fresh berries on special?<br>
Casey: Yes, I picked up two containers. I'm going to make a compote for pancakes this weekend.<br>
Alex: Nice. I was thinking of a simple berry fool, just whipped cream and crushed berries. So easy.<br>
Casey: That's a classic. Sometimes the simple things are best. I find cooking to be a good way to unwind after a long week of reports and data analysis. Just following a straightforward set of instructions with a tangible, tasty result.<br>
Alex: Absolutely. It's a different kind of focus. I've been trying to cook one new recipe from my cookbook each Sunday. It's been fun, even when the results are less than perfect.<br>
<br>
Journal note: Need to remember to water the office plants tomorrow, especially the fern by the window. It's looking a bit dry. Also, order more coffee pods for the kitchen. The medium roast is running low. Check with the supplier about the delivery s
chedule for next month. The team seems to be in good spirits lately, which is great to see. The new project management software is finally starting to feel more intuitive after the training sessions. A few people mentioned they appreciated the step-b
y-step guides we put together. We should consider doing a quick refresher in a couple of weeks for anyone who still has questions. Continuous improvement, that's the goal. Small steps every day.
