I'd take the 2 years and really focus and find what it is that you want to do with your career. Study and learn all that you can to be prepared for your turn. There is ALWAYS something new to learn in pastry...........weaknesses to strengthen.
Define you goals and learn everything you can to help you achieve them when it's your time.
Sometimes learning and growth happens in the most unlikely places. You don't have to be working in a baking job to learn things that relate to baking. For instance, great chefs need business sense, the ability to organize and work with others. You can learn everywhere. Take an art class.......etc...
You have a computor, there's a TON of info. you can find on every topic. Including info. from some very well respected chefs. Put aside a couple hours everyday to read and research on the net.
AND keep that marriage together! Many of us have jobs that limit the hours we have with our spouse. Your a newly wed still.......just give it time and practice every day at giving......you agreed to this from what you wrote. Be today what you want her to be when it's your turn!!
Believe it or not, many people would love to be in your situation. Use this time wisely as what it is (a time to grow)......for some reason this is what you've gotten.........maybe there's a reason, in the bigger picture of your life........
