Where's Garrett Been? He Hasn't Written in Awhile....Oh My!

I'm alive and well so everyone knows. I've just been quite busy and tired and the need to sleep has taken over writing at night.

But work has been great, its been kinda long, working late and then having to get up early Sunday morning to do brunch. Oh brunch, so we do a brunch buffet on Sundays at Garden of the Gods and part of that there is an omlet bar and a carving station for prime rib. Being the extern I got to make french omlets and carve prime rib. I made french omlets like a champ (thank you QFP and Skills II!)

Of course I get Monday and Tuesday off and today I went in to Garden of the Gods to sit in on a Menu Development and Budgeting meeting with my Executive Chef, Executive Sous Chef, Food and Beverage Director and my General Manager. We are in the process of switching over from the winter to spring menu and what comes with that is costing out the new menu and all that fun jazz. But after that learning experience I went to the library (one of my favorite places) and checked out Fodors Guide to Spain and Singapore (I think I have the travel bug) and went to the bank to deposit last Friday's paycheck (YAY! Its all getting saved away!)

Tomorrow I'm going to have quite the adventure. The weather is supposed to be really nice so I think hiking is in the plans for tomorrow and also I'm going to a local farm with my Executive Sous Chef Zack to look what they are growing and raising. I'm really looking forward to it. Maybe with some time left in the day I can go by the giant Asian Market I passed on 24.

But I'm off for the evening. So everyone have a great day and a good night!
