prep

i think i'm going to start using this blog as my own personal blog...but if you noticed, i said "i think"...

this morning marcela had to go in to work early (as opposed to staying late yesterday, which i totally agree with her on) to finish up a project and get it plotted before 9:30. i was not in the mood to prep our lunches last night as i ended up making a sausage fennel risotto for dinner last night (after getting the week's groceries) and was too tired. so, i actually spent some time "cooking" this morning! we switch up our lunches quite often, but one of our favorites to eat are chicken wraps. i had set out 3 breasts to thaw overnight and so i fired up the grill at 7:15! let me tell you, it was hard to not start playing the k-state fight song and crack open a keystone light! the last time i can remember grilling anything this early in the morning, i was in manhattan surrounded by my buddies getting ready to watch jonathan beasley and the wildcats get ready for a football game. anyway, chicken wraps are fairly easy to prep for as we usually just add lettuce and tomato's to the grilled chicken, but i still thought it was fun to be cooking in the morning. it also made me reminisce about working at goldfork and having to get all sorts of things prepped for the days service. i definitely love doing architecture, but i think i could have handled working at a restaurant. i wouldn't have even minded just being a sous chef or a line cook. the kitchen is a great place to be.
