Many smiles and cuddly hugs winging themselves your way, you can count on it!
I'd tell you to knock 'em dead with your cooking, but that could be interpreted the wrong way!  ) Instead I'll say, just be awesome, okies? 
Take care:

Sorry, you used "Brussels Sprouts" and "Good" in the same sentence! This does not compute!

the fruits of your labors like this. First, you got good grades, and now this opeing gig...
WHEEEEEE!
I thought of you today, when I finished an excellent lunch at one of my favorite restaurants. I sent special thanks back to the chef!
It's an Italian place, but here in Asia, even "simple" dishes often come out pretty...umm...unusual. But this was all great. The Caesar Salad wasn't iceburg lettuce with Thousand Island dressing. Need I say more?!
The maitre de was so surprised at my request that he went and hauled the poor guy out of the kitchen to meet me. He was very shy, but beaming hugely. That was as much fun as the meal.
Thanks for the behind the scenes intro to the world of cooking. I don't answer all the time, but I read everything with great interest.

"Brussels Sprouts" and "Good" without a negative, is an oxymoron!
You said when you'd die that you'd walk with me every day
And I'd start to cry and say please don't talk that way
With the blink of an eye the Lord came and asked you to meet
You went to a better place but He stole you away from me

Sound like another yummy day at school.
There was an article in the local paper about this farmer located nearby that specializes in all sorts of designer vegies. They also opened some sort of institute (i saw the new sigm as I drove past the place) but I am not sure if it is for growing or cooking the vegies. I will look into it further.
Any new recipes???
OOOH... Also I added a book of German home cooking to my collection. It's neat with loads of pictures too.
Good luck with the Puck.
I had to say it.
One is the lonliest number.

I must be the weirdo in the bunch, because I don't mind Brussel sprouts at all. I like most vegetables except lima beans and a few select others.
Congratulations e, knock em dead (not literally ... hehe)
Much love and success to you,
Kevin

Thanks everybody. I am so looking forward to this that I can't wait til this evening. I don't expect that I'll get to cook. I'll probably end up prepping veggies or plating, but it'll be fun anyways.
I DO like Brussels sprouts. Even when I was kid and my mom fixed those awful frozen ones she'd buy at the supermarket (I refuse to eat them now that I've had fresh). Fresh ones are really good. Last night they were blanched, cut in half (top to bottom) then sauted in butter with little bits of carrot, celery, onion, and garlic, then topped with some fines herbs (tarragon, chives, chervil, parsley). YUM!
Think good thoughts,
e

Humm... I remember when I was 5, my grandmum and older aunt made me eat 5 brussels-sprouts. I puked everywhere, over the table.
