Oops!  We had plans to wake up early and head over to Santa Monica for the farmer’s market this morning – have our oysters on the half shell for breakfast nibble our way through the market and hurry home with our treasures.

Too bad we overslept – again.  And especially with this heat coming back, I want nothing to do except take fat cat naps all day.  Luckily we made it to Proof Bakery late morning for some iced lattes and goodies.  Croissant, morning bun, apple turnover and a salame, cheese and rocket sandwich to be specific.

Sidebar – I miss wearing whites.  The ritual of donning chef whites is something I haven’t done for years now.  Although I’ll admit it’s definitely cooler temperature-wise not wearing them, there’s just something about wearing chef coats that I miss.  Perhaps it’s the formality of it all.

You know what else I miss?  Having tons of time to mess around in my kitchen, experiment and cook.  Thanks Utah, thanks a lot for spoiling me and giving me time to mess around.  Now I have absolutely no time for playing.  Well, it’s not entirely true.  Now it seems I’m just more tired from actually working.  I’m just glad I’m back in a kitchen these days doing what I love to do.

Where did September go?  Seriously one minute it was just the start of September and I just had my awesome birthday party, the next minute it’s already October 12th.  Sometimes I wish time would slow down.  Just a little bit.

I’m ranting.  But only because Matty’s not here to listen to me.  He’s on his way home though but by then I’ll have exhausted myself getting everything out here instead.  Oh well, it’ll probably be better for him when he gets home, ha!

I wish I had something more interesting to rant about.  Well, there is but I don’t exactly want to air out my dirty laundry.  That’s what private posts are for!  And thank goodness too!

Frank and Marley are staring at me like they need to take a walk and poop so I won’t keep them any longer.  Hold on dogs, I’m coming!
