For those of you looking for a good read, check out Anthony Bourdain's "Kitchen Confidential". It's inappropriate, crude, and hilarious. Super entertaining. Strangely inspiring.
Just to vent for a quick second: so I went to Whole Paycheck (aka Whole Foods) to get groceries on Sunday and spent an obscene amount of money, getting all the food I needed for the week to make some amazing meals. Sure enough, come Monday morning, construction people show up to our house to knock down walls from our flood! Our kitchen is completely out of order now and for who knows how long. Typical.
Let me just tell you: climbing over our counter to microwave eggs (have no stove now) was interesting. Sounds like something from Top Chef. "Construction Kitchen Challenge": you are given a fridge, food, one fork, one spoon, and a microwave. Go!
