Hi everyone!!!
Since my subscription was just renewed for a few years I figured it was time to stick my head in the door and say hello!
First off I am NOT cooking for work right now...I am a front of house supervisor while I wait for my bosses to open up a couple of more locations and split the "family" so I can move into the kitchen once again! Doing all from scratch Italian cuisine to order in a 190 seat place but for the next few weeks am waiting tables and making sure the waitstaff understands the food and what I as a Chef expect from them...the tips are nice...
We (Holly and I) are expecting another little girl at the end of April of 2010. So all of the cyber family here and elsewhere is about to have the family grow again. The new (last January) house is still not 100% done but is getting much closer to done. Still in semi-rural Iowa and freezing our buns off with a bunch of snow and ice around as I am sure many of you are experiencing as well!
So how is everyone??? I'd do hellos to everyone but I'd miss someone I am sure! Might not be back for a day or two but we are closed Mondays at work so that is a good day for me to read what everyone has been up to and cooking around here! Missed everyone!!!
