Julie Andrews Ate My Muffin

It's been two weeks since classes have ended at Giant Corporate Cooking School, how have I been spending them?

Working.

Or technically externing.  So far I kind of love it.  It's hard work and I'm still getting up ass early in the morning, but it's been a really enjoyable experience.  For one thing, unlike my stage at a certain other place, I actually get to do stuff.  Like make English muffins.  Yes, if I have to do it for years, I will either find it tedious or think of it as a physical white noise, just something I do without thinking.  But as for now, I've made the recipe maybe a dozen times and I can see how things like the weather and forgetting the salt alter the recipe.  I make decent English muffins right now.  By the end of this, my English muffins are going to rock.

Speaking of English muffins, a certain English rose enjoyed one of mind.  Julie Andrews came into the restaurant and got eggs benedict.  You guys, Mary Poppins/Maria von Trapp ate my muffin!  Only in LA.
