I feel a little drained right now, I've had some some health issues in the last few months that have tested my patience, and left me feeling like a worn out dish rag.
Normally I would insert something positive, but today it just is what it is.
Illness is really rough on us control freaks, I think.

Justin and I were bartenders for the event and spent the afternoon pouring wine. I was talking to the museum's event manager and was happily surprised when he mentioned he was a founding member of the Cheeseboard collective/pizzeria. He shared some great memories from those days.
I was blown away by the fact that the sourdough starter they still use today in their pizza dough has been alive for 41 years!
Amazing. No wonder the pizza there is so damned good.

After catering for years, I want to re-learn some basic techniques the right way. :)
Their kitchen is gorgeous, and Chef Mike (one of the founders/instructors) is an awesome person. I went to the school to register and we had a nice long chat about local produce,recipe troubleshooting and kitchen influences.
This feels good. I start September 1st.

I decided to try something new Thursday night- meditating before bed one night and consciously asking myself to solve a problem I was having in my waking hours, during my dream.

I want to do something different. Last time I served:
Arancini (deep fried risotto balls filled with cheeses) for 150 with marinara sauce
Shrimp puffs with sweet chili garlic sauce
Mediterranean platter (homemade hummus, baba ganoush, with pita and olives) for 50
Antipasti tray for 100 (with marinated mushroom and veggie salad in the center)
Fruit trays
Veggie trays
Salsa Bar with chips
Chocolate Fountain with various dippers (strawberries, bananas, graham crackers, marshmallows)
I'm out of ideas right now. I will go over to tastespotting.com to see if I can find some new appetizers to try.
For my foodie friends, do you have an appetizer recipe that is delicious and translates well to be made for 100 people?

Your result for The Best Thing About You Test...
Compassion
Compassion is your strongest virtue

Compassion is the most human of the virtues. And you? Your heart has limits far beyond normal levels empathy, and your capacity for feeling the world's pain is boundless. You poor, beautiful, wonderful thing. All 7 virtues are a part of you, but your compassion runs deepest.
It is likely you're an altruist. And it's likely (but not necessarily true, think of Bono) that your humility score is high too.
Compassionate famous people: Brad Pitt, Mother Theresa, The A-Team.
Your raw relative scores follow. 0% is low, and 100% is perfect, nearly impossible. Note that I pitted the virtues against each other, so in some way these are relative scores. It's impossible to score high on all of them, and a low score on one is just relatively low compared to the other virtues.
