Another few days

It's been rather difficult to keep up with these posts or post anything at all with the way things have been lately. Not only am I spending about 35 hours a week on this externship but I also have my other job to maintain as well as closing on a condo that I bought in Hillsborough and planning my Wedding that's coming up in August. This sadly leaves me very little time to keep this updated or work on anything at all. Though less about me and more about the externship. The past few days have been a steep learning curve. I'm starting to move much faster on the line and am able to see what needs to be done during the prep hours a lot more now without being told. Prep time is probably still the "longest" part of my day, both literally and feels like forever, however I know it needs to get done and I'm learning valuable knife skills while doing so. Everything changes pace drastically once on the line making the hours fly by like nothing, far more enjoyable than the prep times. I started out the first day just plating a few things here and there on the line and frying a few items in the deep fry, but I'm learning more and more. I know how to plate pretty much everything on the grill/fry half of the line now, just need to get times down on the grilling in correlation to the sauté side, which I know will come with time. All and all, as said before I'm learning a lot and working hard, when I get home it's hot shower and bed so that I can get up early the next day to go back into the kitchen again.
