Just a little holiday baking information-

November 4, 2009 by ryanarter

Well good morning!

Last One’s the Rotten Egg – or Not?

I came across this little tidbit yesterday and thought that I’d pass it along. . .

If you have a carton of eggs past the expiration date, it’s a gamble on whether the eggs are actually rotten. How can you tell without cracking one open and ruining the cake batter? Put them to the test.

Fill a bowl with cold water and place an egg in the water. If it sinks to the bottom, the egg is still good. If it floats, it’s a bad egg and needs to be tossed. If it sinks to the bottom but stands on end, it needs to be used soon!

Well, I do pride myself as the chef of the household and now I know. Or, if you have a cute neighbor, just toss all of your eggs and go borrow one. Now that’s a good tip ;-)

What does this have to do with Mission Repair? Well, nothin. Just thought that I’d pass along this info!

Thanks, BRB, Ryan

New building is fully occupied!

October 26, 2009 by ryanarter

Whew. . .we are 100% out of our old building and into the new. . .and what a spectacular difference this new space has made! We are not nearly as cramped and we have room to maneuver our staff around without being elbow to elbow. The new “Breakroom 2.0″ is almost completed with full service kitchen, ping pong, 52″ flat panel TV with direct TV and xBox 360, foosball and all of the other “necessary” ammenities will be done in the next week or two. We are all very excited for it.

Here’s a shot of Kyle and I “conferencing” at our new conference room table this morning. . .it’s great to have a place to meet throughout the day:

The expanded phone system is working great and we are rockin here at good ol’ Mission Repair on this fine Monday morning. More pics coming very soon, and we’ll be back shortly with some cool Incase specials. Oh yeah, did I mention that we are now a reseller of Incase products? Yeah, that’s pretty cool too!

OK, back to work. (That means me). I’ll be back in touch shortly. . .Ryan

1.21 Gigawatts at lunch today!

Yes, I went out for Mexican food today at one of my favorite restaurants, Chapalas. Awesome cheese dip and salsa. Yummy!

I pulled around the building looking for a parking space and what appeared before my eyes? Doc. Brown’s time machine. Yup, it was there and just arrived back from 1985!

License plate = 88MPH

The kinda strange and ironic part about it is, that, I just bought the movie “Back to the Future” and watched it with my son Casey (this was BEFORE we went the the Renaissance festival!) this weekend. He’s 12 and it was his first time seeing it. I don’t know how I’ve managed to go 12 years without seeing the movie with him but now he’s hooked!! We will most certainly look on eBay for a used copy of the second and third versions soon. He loved it as I do.

My partner, Kyle, checking out the time machine.

I thought that the pics were worth a quick blog. Good luck Marty!
