I smell like a kitchen
Tuesday 21 January 2003 at 6:13 pm. So I'm working for free at a really nice restaurant so I can learn how to cook and be a super-duper chef. It's fun, given the fact that I don't get paid and I only work 4-6 hours a day twice a week. Today I chopped leeks, sliced potatoes, peeled butternut squash, diced 12 onions, made mushroom and vegetable stock (45 quarts of each), and made mushroom soup and squash soup with the help of super-duper chef Ryan. I was going to work in the salad/sandwich station but this girl named Melanie (i think) started working there today and Elliot seemed to click with her so I ran away.I'm working out 3 days a week, plus lifting weights, so my legs are all tired as all ass. Ok maybe that sentence doesn't make sense but you get what I mean. Damnit.
Did you know a full 9% of the money Jen (my wife) and I bring in every month goes to eating out? Geez. We gotta cut back... we just love food soooooo much!
OK, I think that is all for now. Go away.

Hey Peter, is the 9% of Gross or Net income? Seriously, It sounds like you are enjoying your self. Glad to here it. We will have to chat some time about your exercise program. Maybe you can get me motivated.

But just think how much you are saving on groceries.

OK so first…i just stumbled upon your website by accident and i must say! Love it….and second who doesn’t love eating out! i mean seriously!…yum
I was sure you must be working at my local Happy Chef. The chef there is Ryan and there is a girl there named Melanie. I’ve gone there every night this week. But I still haven’t seen you.

Are you ready for a Food Fight? It sounds as though you really enjoy your food. I would be most interested in you applying for our new TV show on the Food Network. I think you would be perfect. Looking forward to meeting your team.
