Sweetest Day and PowerPoint?
Sweetest Day is October 15 this year. Fancy that. I've been celebrating sweets every day.
For years.
But apparently, Sweetest Day is a midwestern US pseudo holiday. The only reason I know about it is because my local grocery stores are hawking it in a big way. Yesterday, my eyes were assaulted with bins of colorful candies. And with the cold, crisp weather coming on -- it's hard not to think of warm brownies and tasty, mouth-watering pumpkin pies.
At the very least, Sweetest Day might serve as an Autumnal culinary warm-up for Halloween.
And when it comes to the debate over PowerPoint v. Pastries, my online PowerPoint v. Pastries poll currently shows that pastries are more influential when it comes to business presentations and relationship sales. So on Sweetest Day, you might want to skip the PowerPoint presentation...and head straight for the cookies! ¶ 10/12/2005 04:54:00 PM
