People often think that my daily life as a chef & chef instructor must be glamorous & fascinating because it revolves around FOOD.  Really though, there can be too much of a good thing!  "But, food is wonderful!" they say.  Wonderful, yes.  But, try this on for size...

My day goes something like this:

I awaken, and eat food.
I menu plan for other people's food.
For work, I shop for food.
I carefully select fresh foods.
I carry food to the car.
I carry food from the car.
I unload food.
Lunch, I eat food.
I prepare dinner, breakfast, & snack foods.
I plate food.
I clean up prep for food.
I inventory pantry & fridge food.
I begin to plan for tomorrow's work food.
I drive to a place where we teach food and sell implements for preparing food.
I gather and prep food for class.
I teach & guide other's in preparing food.
I promote the sale of implements for preparing food.
I prepare food.
I watch students eat food.
I talk about food.
I answer questions about food.
I clean up after food preparation.
Dinner, I eat food. (Sometimes I go out for food.)
At home, I clean up from breakfast food.
I sleep.
Repeat.

You see?
(And, you wonder why I'm not svelte.)
