I just joined today, and have been back and forth a couple of times. This is really an exciting site and the best thing is "it's all about the industry!":lips:

Yes, Harry, and the love of food! I take it you're a professional.... What is your culinary focus? Are there ingredients or products you especially enjoy working with?

We hope you stop in often and look forward to your participation in the community.

Focus

I am informally trained in french classical with a working knowledge of northern italian. I also am well versed in american chinese and korean as my wife of 32 years is Korean.
I've been at this since the age of 13 with a 20 year stint year in the army and the past 13 years out here in the civilian world.

Focus? Make it till retirement!!!!!!:lol: Serious focus - bring back the morals and values of yesterday especially pertaining to service!!!! I love working with anything!!!! I want to try it all, Thank the good Lord I still have the same desire I had at the age of 13. If I narrowed it down though I think I would say simple fish dishes excite me right now.

Focus on retirement??!! I get that! But the moment I retired I was busier than ever- just that I got to choose what I was busy doing. ;)

Enjoy the site!

That's what I'm afraid of. Everybody I know that has retired is busier than they were while working.
After the death of a friend of mine this past week I am ever more intent on retiring in time, on time, IN MY TIME and enjoying it. He was 53 and in my opinion too young to go.

After five years of working for Best Buy as a manager because I couldn't get what I was worth around here, I'm back in the business and enjoying the heck out of it. I don't have to but, tommorrow I plan to go in around 7 and start on some nice fruit tarts, some foccacia and ciabata dough and the beginning of another veal stock! PAPERWORK BE DAMNED THIS WEEK, I'M ENJOYING MYSELF!!!:roll:
