A Rarity!!!!

Rarely do I have the luxury and good fortune of a Free Monday. But here I am, Free of work.

Thusly, I've indulged in an hour of FLN (Fine Living Network---frickin' love it). I think Mark McEwan is a god. I would love to sweat in one of his kitchens.... anyways, he has a show on FLN, The HEAT, and it's captivating television. Truly. See it and believe it.


Absence from blogger has been due to the gorgeous weather and the greening of golf courses in the area.... I have no apologies. Somehow I've become a decent golfer...weird. I like it.

The restaurant has been jam packed---graduation weekends---and the summer schedule is looking great, weddings, rehearsals, events/private parties filling up the few weekends of the summer. I've been left to more or less manage the restaurant the past couple weekends while the bosses have been out of town at showers, wine tastings, Mother's Day Vacation to Napa..etc. [What a life; don't get me wrong, they're married to the restaurant too...but everyone needs to get away now and again--recharge, re-center, search for new inspiration and focus. I think it's a chef thing.]

Because I've picked up, in this industry, something can always be better. :o) **And if it can't, you're either ignorant and lack motivation, or you're hungover and in a food coma from the most mind blowing, palate tantilizing eating experience ever.

And now I need a sandwhich.
