Know what you want, plan for it and get it

I just want to express how happy I am about the decision I made last year. A year ago I graduated with flying colors from Le Cordon Bleu in St. Louis, MO. Since then I never stopped cooking professionally and for my family.

Currently, I am a Full-time Cook at a Retirement Center. We have 213 residents that we feed breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It’s awesome! I learn a lot everyday. I love what I do everyday,
I feel accomplished everyday.

I am also pursuing my Bachelors Degree in Hospitality Management Major in Food Service. It’s just very interesting to directly apply what I learn from school to my job.

I just feel so blessed to have a good work schedule where I can still go to my (online school) and be with my family:)

So, know your options, know what you want, plan for it and go get it!

What’s the rainbow for?

Does anybody know why we have rainbow?

 

My husband and I saw double rainbow last month while we were driving.  And he casually asked, “Why is there a rainbow?”  Then he connected that question with Seinfeld’s show, when George Castanza (a character on Seinfeld) when George said,  ”What’s the rainbow for?”  Then we both laugh because we watch that episode together.

But the real answer why we have a rainbow is found in Genesis 9:9, 13,

“And as for me, here I am establishing my covenant with you men and with your offspring after you, and with every living soul that is with you, among fowls, among beasts and among all living creatures of the earth with you, from all those going out of the ark to every living creature of the earth.  Yes I do establish my covenant with you:  No more will all flesh be cut off by waters of a deluge and no more will there occur a deluge to bring the earth to ruin.  This is the sign of the covenant that I am giving between me and you and every living soul that is with you, for the generations to time indefinite.  My rainbow I do give in the cloud, and it must serve a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.”

 

That’s why there’s a rainbow :)

How are you all doing?

Hi everybody,

Hope you are all doing fine.  Myself, doing alright.  I just discovered something new about myself.  I do not know how to write a Primary Source analytical paper :( (  I submitted my assignment to my Professor and he told me to rewrite it because it will do me no favor if he will grade it :(  It’s that horrible :(

What a bummer! So I searched online and found a way on how to write/analyze a Primary Source, I will read it later on my break so I can rewrite an assignment that’s 2 weeks ago.

I also would like to take this opportunity to recommend a book that I can not stop reading.

This book is an assigned reading of my Management 201 class and boy, oh boy!  Everything that Jim Clemmer said in this book, is so true!

I have 4 more chapters to finish and I am really looking forward to finishing it.  I am learning a lot.  As Dr. Seuss said, “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.”  (http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/show_tag?id=learning)

Lastly,  my Mother-in-law and her BFF Shirley are coming to visit us next week.  They’ll be here this Monday – Saturday.  I love my Mother-in-law, her name is Judy.  I will post some pictures of us.  She is so awesome!

Alrighty, I am going to crunch my abs for 10 mins today and move on on doing my assignment :)

Keep you posted!

Roux challenge

We make a lot roux ahead of time for our weekly consumption at work. We use it for soup.

But, when I added the roux directly into a big pot of soup(for 213 people) the roux doesn’t dissolve well. So what I did to solve this challenge is, boil a substancial amount of water I put the roux in it so it can melt well. Then I add it to the soup.
