It worked!

Today turned out to be a pretty good one. I've been brainstorming business strategies for the upcoming year all week long. I'm really trying to take my role as CEO to another level in 2011 and today I found the waiting room of the car dealership to be a great place to get the creative juices flowing (while waiting for an oil change and inspection). It's very important to me that our company have a financially sound, well planned, successful year. At the same time it is going to be extremely important that our managerial staff put all differences aside and come together in an effort to take our family business to the next level. There are so many different dynamics when working with family ( I don't recommend it at all) it can be a blessing or a curse and many times it can feel like a combination of both. Like everything else in life, it has its advantages but it also has its disadvantages. It can be difficult getting family to give the same performance and have the same work habits as they would have if they were working with someone else. There's like an unspoken entitlement feeling in the air at times or maybe it's just me.... I don't think anyone understands how difficult my position really is on sooooo many levels... Anyhow, on to personal news, Yes. The blackened Tilapia recipe last night was a hit!!! My husband loved it, the kids actually asked for seconds and more importantly I was able to enjoy the same meal as the rest of the family. I've decided to share the recipe with you...if there's anyone out there... lol http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/aaron-mccargo-jr/big-daddys-blackened-tilapia-recipe/index.html Tonights Menu: God old-fashioned Sloppy Joe ( I had to call it something else in order for the twins to eat it) :)
