It's a new day full of possibility. I'm Kim Gaskill, and this is the Daily Spark. Is there anything that you do consistently that people would say you're predictable? They know what you want without even asking? I know there has to be. One of the things that happened this morning, they're, they're pretty consistent about their meals here. They get delivered— breakfast gets delivered between 7:00 and 7:30 every morning. They have a menu that you fill out for your 3 meals on the following day, so the kitchen knows what to make and bring up, and you get a choice of a couple different things. And there's been some problems with it, but for the most part they're, they're pretty good. Well, yesterday I was gone for breakfast and lunch because I had an appointment at the surgeon, and so I didn't get a menu filled out. And so if you don't get a menu filled out, you pretty much get whatever they send. And they have a little sheet of paper that they send up, and they brought breakfast in this morning, and I didn't even think about it last night by the time I got back. And, uh, I open up the little cloche, I think it's called, and there's 2 over medium eggs and 2 pieces of bacon. And that's pretty cool. I was happy to see that because that's what I order almost every morning, same thing. And but because I did not fill out a menu yesterday, I wasn't expecting it to be here. But I look on the little sheet that they sent with it and there's a line that says Notes, Likes, and it has fried eggs and bacon. So they have it written down, down there in the kitchen, that I like fried eggs and bacon. So I guess they assumed since I didn't have a menu, they would send up what I liked, and that was pretty awesome. So I ask you, are there things about you that your family and your friends and your coworkers would send up correctly because they know your likes, they know your patterns, they know your preferences. If they don't, are there some things that maybe they should know and you need to share with them? Think about that today and join me again tomorrow for another Daily Spark.
