Passed my test.

Posted at 8:32 pm under crafty

I got tested today on my culinary skill~z.  I passed.

Actually, I think I did brilliantly if I do say so myself. (and i do.  say so myself, that is.) I was told 20-25. 30 showed up hungry.  There was *just* enough.  Some people got second helpings, so no one went without.  But more would have been better.  What can ya’ do? eh!

They asked me back to cook next week two days for someone going on holiday.  That is a good sign.  Axel said that the word on the farm was very favorable.  Hooray!  I love to cook.   And it is cooking with really great food.  I used veggies grown in the college market garden and meat raised right there.  That is pretty cool if you think about it.  It isn’t fancy, but it is good.  My forte’ is seasoning so I can usually make something special out of odd bits.  I learned today as more people kept coming in past blessing the meal these few key tactics in cooking on the farm:   Think quick, keep it simple. Dazzle them with a splash of flavor.

I am really happy to be able to do this.  One of my wishes is to be cook for ‘our vineyard’.  Wherever, whenever….if….thats why its called a wish. So this feels like a glimpse into a wish.  cool.

One response so far
