An Early Summer Salad
Yesterday at the restaurant we had a cook call out sick, and I had an unexpected shift at the pantry station. The summer season is just beginning here in Delaware, so getting to write a salad special was actually an exciting task. The special I wrote was dead simple, but flavorful, and proved to be very popular. Most of the work was frying these insanely flavorful local red beets from our pals at...

“Then they claim I ignore the audience while I’m playing. Man, when...”
–  Miles Davis My coworkers often ask me why I’m so quiet in the kitchen, and Miles sums it up pretty well here. I know the people are out there, in the dining room in my case, and I’m worrying about making my food taste right. Being something, and being good at it, means deciding what...

But I have been taking it for granted, recoiling further and further into the depths of my bedroom. I have two roommates; nice, handsome young fellows, who I can only assume are… Hey, you’re really good at this. I’d like to see more of this.

(sshh!) little froggies!: why I am mad today →
littlefroggies: Long story short, I’ve been gradually getting more and more disenchanted with my food service job (and that line of work in general) over the last two out of five years I’ve worked it. I’m not going to go into too much detail, but I’m realizing it is not the job I want to keep doing alongside… I’m familiar with this pattern of treatment, so I’m going to guess...
