Caramelization

I have to learn how to master the art of the short post. It takes so much out of me to write a restaurant review. Plus, work has been like a really bad episode of Jeopardy as of late, so I've been ignoring my beloved food blog. In order to bridge the gap between bearing my soul and doing nothing, I'm inspired to give quick culinary school tips to my loyal readers.

Over the weekend I hosted a Recession Party for some co-workers. My good friend from North Carolina brought her 8 year-old daughter to enjoy my renditions of pasta and Guitar Hero. She told me that she wanted to be a chef (and a dancer, actress, singer and several other things I can't recall). So, I did what any chef would do... I put her short self to work. And she rocked it! She happily made garlic bread, assisted in the creation of Bolgnese sauce and even added her flair to an otherwise uninspired salad. I was quite impressed with the passion of this young'n.
