Lacie’s Farewell Lunch
Posted on May 27, 2016 by Ching under Events, Food and Drink.
When you are loved, people not only celebrate you but they celebrate with you. We had a wonderful farewell lunch at Public in Lacie’s honor last week. I happened to be in town (somewhat of a rare occurrence these days) so I got to attend.
I’m actually grateful for several reasons:
- I’m grateful that someone remembered to invite me. As the saying goes, “Out of sight, out of mind.” I think sometimes people forget I actually work in Wichita so I do end up getting excluded from things.
- I’m grateful that I happened to be in Wichita that day and could go. Sometimes, people remember to invite me to things but my schedule is so busy that I can’t go anyway. The stars aligned just right this time around.
- I’m grateful for the opportunity to get to know Lacie. She’s moving on but I’m glad that we had the opportunity to work together. The person replacing her will have some big shoes to fill.
Lacie and Lila
Nykole, Shanda, and Sherii
I think Shane was starving because he tried to eat my head. JK.
Huge thanks to Karen for organizing the lunch.
And then here’s the obligatory food pics.
It’s Public. The food is amazing. Of course, I had to take pictures. LOL.
This last pic was of my lunch. I had the curry chicken special with a side of fruit. I’m not really trying to eat healthier but I am eating fruit when I can. Everything is great at Public. You really can’t go wrong, no matter what you choose to order from their menu.
Anyway, Lacie has only been gone a few days but I miss her already. I did get one of her work shirts so, at least, I have something to remember her by (besides the dozens of photos). Good luck, Lacie!
