One awesome thing about my job is the food I am being exposed to.
Being a wanna be foodie I am well aware of the different varieties of cuisine and many different cooking techniques there are.
My new employer is a chef with the kitchen and pantry (gadgets too) of any professional chef. One of my favorite past-times is wandering up and down the pantry (which is bigger than my kitchen) looking at all the gadgets and tools.
I love recognizing what they are and actually knowing what they do.
So far I have been treated to Mashed Potatoes with shaved White Truffles ...(look up those suckers)
and Iberico de Bellota which is a wild acorn fed black pig. Basically the Kobe of Pork.
So tasty.

New Year New Home New State New Job
Well since I have last posted pretty much everything in my life but Christopher has changed.
I am now living in PA in a townhouse with Chris.
New job. Older girls.
No friends. I think that is what I am dwelling on this week. I really have a better understanding of what my friend was talking about when she married and moved farther north. She felt like she had lost all her friends. I get it.
I feel it. I think I am wrestling with the fact that maybe I was not so important in peoples lives as I thought I was.
No, I am not depressed but yes I have the amazing ability of over analyzing. I think I am just hurt.
For example I got an email requesting photos for a friend to use on their holiday card. So Chris and I spent about an hour all told getting the pictures there. And did we even get a card from that person, NO. WTF.
I am sure it was an oversight but an already sensitive person like myself is gonna take that and run.
But if I think about it I suppose it goes both ways. I need to keep in better contact as well.
I am just having a pity party today.
Sigh.
Next post will be brighter and cheerier I promise.
