This is a queued tasting note.
Had this one cold shaken in milk for lunch last week alongside and unexpected veggie burger. Let me explain…
So at work we have a ‘found money’ policy where, if a staff member finds money in any of the donations, they can turn it in and the company will give them 30% of whatever they found. A few weeks before I started, someone found $2000 in a suit. An amount that large has to be turned over to the police, but thankfully the suit that was donated had a dry cleaning slip in it which helped the police track the owner down and return the money to the owner. How someone forgets $2000 in a suit baffles me, but long story short the company still honored the 30% finders fee for the person who found it and that person, in turn, paid for a staff BBQ!
What’s really cool is that, for the first time out of any place I’ve ever worked, they made sure there were vegetarian options at the BBQ (so I actually got to participate) as well as Halal options since a large portion of our production staff is Muslim. It just really humbled me to see a company be so inclusive with all of their employees. It’s a really refreshing change of pace. Not that Sobeys wasn’t a great place to work; but staff events certainly didn’t have the same amount of inclusiveness.

What a great workplace! and do you just take this/other macha in to work in your timolino?
I’ve been bringing a cold brew with me to drink on shift in the donation center in my timolino (since I’m allowed a ‘water bottle’ there because it’s such physical work) and then I just buy Milk2Go bottles of milk and cold shake the matcha into the milk to drink for lunch :)
Oh neat idea! I thought about shaking macha up in my timolino but worried I’d get powder all over the place LOL.
The problem I find with doing it in my timolino is that after a while it started to tint everything slightly green.
ah yes, I never even thought of that. Maybe a macha only timolino is in order!
