"Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not" - Harriet Van Horne
Anyone who knows me personally could tell you. I am not an early morning person. I'm more of a 10 AM person. So imagine my reaction when I received my schedule to see that I had a class that started at 5 AM. That's right. 5 AM. And of course it's my fundamentals class, where we are just starting to use knives. Yeah. I was thrilled. (That was sarcasm by the way). However now after having a week to adjust I have to say I'm okay with the situation however it's made me realize that my restaurant, if I ever get it running, will probably only be open for lunch and dinner. 5 AM is the norm for when chefs start preparing for the breakfast crowd. It's even worse for bakers who's mornings can start as early as 2 or 3 in the morning.
It's funny how even a class time can make you think about what you want to do come graduation time and I've only been going to school for a few weeks. Maybe it's just because I finally figuring out what it is that I want to do with the rest of my life that everything seems to be pointing me in a certain direction. Maybe this is what it's like to find a passion and nurture it instead of smother it.
