Hello all!
As a newbie to this forum, may I say: What a great web site! I've been reading you with great interest for a while now, and my cooking has improved as a result (my friends thank you..!)

I am undergoing a significant career change at the moment and I wonder if there is anyone out there in a similar situation. I have 3 university degrees in economics and finance and have worked for a few years without ever really 'loving it'. The only work that I have ever really loved is when I'm in my kitchen chopping my onions (and other assorted kitchen activities). So after about 2 years of soul-searching, I've decided to go to cooking school, which I am starting next Monday. We had orientation yesterday and I found myself surrounded by kids half my age (ok, 10-12 years younger). For a minute I thought I was crazy, copping out of the real world... I'm sure my jitters will disappear after my first lab.. I hope...

Any other career switches out there?
