What's been your worst experience at a restaurant?
I purchased a two piece chicken meal from Popeyes and not only did the people behind the counter look like the chicken may have dragged them in but I would bet money that if the chicken was alive I would have understand what the hell it was saying before I knew what the hell the girl behind the counter was asking me.
...thing in your life that you decided a long time ago (not necessarily a long long time ago but enough time that you resolved that you would let it go) that you were never really going to have the chance to pursue because you already had too much on your plate? Now I actually have a few things in my life that might fit in this category but I have somehow incorporated them in as a hobby or side project that will most likely take me forever to accomplish. But the point is to accomplish it. Well, there is one thing that has always nagged at me and whenever I am confronted with it I find myself daydreaming of what it would be like to master it. That thing that has me looking like I was abducted by an alien and left staring like a deer in headlights is the desire to be a chef.
Yes, yes I know there are probably tons of people who have this dream and many who go through years of training to accomplish it. But I never, ever...you say never ever...never ever, even tried to attempt this feat. Nowadays I am living a life as a vegetarian (well nowadays meaning officially starting the new year off this way) and it has led me to think that maybe this is the motivation I need to be that chef I always wanted to be. Now, I know that I can not go to some chef or hospitality school and put all the work needed to master it, but I have come to a new resolve (you like how I am incorporating this administration's go to word resolve in my new shock and awe adventure) yes, resolve, to use any free time I have and master the art of vegetarian cooking in my own life's situation. My future lunches and dinner's will be well thought out plans, recipes learned from the greats (whoever is a vegetarian great chef), a little book of modified recipes to my own liking, and ,maybe, just maybe, I, TheFemGeek, will have finally obtained the impossible.
Being the chef I never thought I could be. Isn't life funny that way?
