This is about the joy of creating something new and wonderful; the disappointment of a failed effort; and the addictions associated with both. It is a testament to my love of the right and often the best kitchen tools. Hopefully, this blog makes you hungry, provides a useful tip or two and (most importantly) inspires you to get in the kitchen with the right tools.

On The Pulse of Morning
I've been doing a lot of soul searching lately, trying to get back to me. I got real still and listened to my heart. Some life-changing things have been revealed. I am not on purpose, which I knew in the back of my mind; I just didn't want to face it. I knew my true purpose had something to do with food and cooking, but I didn't know what I was supposed to be doing.
I was on my way to a religious conference in Dallas when it hit me. I know now where I want to work, but I'm still unclear as to exactly what I'll be doing. My professional background is in marketing, advertising specifically. My dream company will allow me to combine my professional experience with my love of all things culinary. In additional to my first choice, I have listed others in the same tier as well as second and third tiers. I would love to reveal the companies now, but I don't think that's proper.
I've been putting my plan in place for weeks now and things are coming together nicely. I've actually taken a part-time job at my first-choice company for the holidays. Yeah, I get a great discount on the stuff, but I'm getting valuable knowledge about the way the company works. More importantly, I'm getting to interact with the customers. That experience is priceless as a marketer.
Since I started really working at this purpose thing last month, I've gotten all types of signs and omens along the way. My favorite sign thus far? My future boss was in the training video I saw today!
I have a lot of peace now that I know what my dream is. I'm making progress toward it everyday. The unknown (when and how) frightens me a little bit. I truly believe that when you honestly pursue your best, things will work out in your favor; you just have to have the faith to make it so. I am working on my faith.
