Yes, it takes quite an organization for writing the updated version of Pieter's world famous book:
Modern Mushroom Growing...
Original content from Pieter's writings (and one chapter by me).
We finally could proceed after archiving all our slides, photos etc.
Here she is: OFFICE MANAGER Speckie Vedder!
She is tough and she notices the tiniest detail...
Watch her peer over Pieter's corrections and/or notes...
YES—she reads and even upside down!
AND she stays on TOP of things - literally, see the finished papers under her hands?!
Don't you think that I might escape her watchful eye!
She's keeping taps on me and my typing as well...
Mom, can't you type faster with ten fingers?!
She DEMANDS high pay in LOTS of foods + Snacks...
But she EARNS it!
Thanks for your visit and comment!

With Speckie's help we finished this mega task: modern mushroom growing 2020 harvesting
Hello Mariette, And Pieter thought that Campbell's was a demanding taskmaster! Perhaps after the book is finished I might borrow Speckie for my own supervisor--I need someone to make me toe the line!

Dearest Jim,
DeleteYes, she played her supervising role very well and I must say, with good results!
Don't know if she would like to leave her siblings by adoption for working for you. She loves all food, so that would not be the problem...
Hugs,
Mariette

Love your photos of what goes on during the editing process!! Great minds wanted to know. LOL. Happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteDearest Helen,

Happy weekend to you and hugs,

It’s good for someone to watch out for writing. How is writing?
ReplyDeleteDearest Anne,
DeleteYes, Speckie was a great motivator too!
It is DONE!
Hugs,
Mariette
You gave an excellent office manager! Speckie is keeping everything right, what a hard working girl :-) And she is gorgeous, too!
ReplyDeleteDearest Tamago,
DeleteYou bet she kept it right for all this time; it paid off!
She has the smartest and cutest face indeed!
Hugs,
Mariette
Speckie appears to be both a concerned and serious office manager, but you Mariette deserve lots of special thanks and I should think a treat - perhaps Pieter will take you out for a special meal when we eventually become free of this wretched virus, a bunch of flowers, and a big hug.
ReplyDeleteDearest Rosemary,
DeleteThank you and yes, Speckie is a very loyal girl and she works so diligent. She's in the office as I type this right now, but relaxing on her padded stool, halfway on the windowsill...
We both are looking out for some special and relaxing time out again!
Hugs,
Mariette
Esa mirada de tu gato, me ha cautivado tanto, que no he tenido ojos nada más que para él.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Querida Antónia,
Delete¡Oh, nuestra chica Speckie tiene una mirada tan intensa! Es un personaje.
Abrazos,

What a lovely and serious office manager you have, dearest Mariette!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on finishing the manuscript!!! Pieter must be very happy!
Many hugs and happy Sunday!
Dearest Marie-Anne,
DeleteShe is dead serious and can be very fierce too!
Her eyes reveal a lot...
Yes, reaching the final chapter on Sunday, June 17 by 6:00 PM.
Since then we've done the Proofs and it is almost print ready now.
Hugs,
Mariette
Un bel micione.

Speckie mag wel genoemd worden in het boek.
ReplyDeleteFijn dat het nu bijna af is.
Beste Willy,
DeleteJa, ze zou er bijna in thuis horen!
De laatste fase, inderdaad.
Liefs,
Mariette
Brilliant - Stay Strong
ReplyDeleteCheers
Dearest Padre,
DeleteGuess the front matter is nothing compared to the entire manuscript...
Hugs,
Mariette
