April 16, 2008
So I had to make this gravy for this Trick and after my last little addition of my top secret over the top ingredient (salt) I took a taste and ran out the door to get to my meeting on time. Adjusted the rearview mirror to check the hair, the make-up - gave myself a spritz of GoodSmellUms as not to overwhelm the place with garlic and arrived just in time. I noticed The Client looking at me, then down at my shirt. Then back at me, then at my shirt. And just before I could say something to distract him he said, "Job hazzard?" and nodded toward my collar. I gave him a confused look and did that awkward face bend where you try to see your own collar and there cascading down was a lovely stain/drip/river/lake of gravy. I'm an idiot.

After all FW, it is not easy to check out one's collar in a tiny rearview mirrow! Posted by: LisaInCT at April 17, 2008 06:07 AM Think of it this way: if you had kids it would have been spit-up or barf on your shirt instead of something appetizing like gravy. Keep that in mind the next time this happens 'cuz we all know it will.

Emily...where do I get one of these amazing mugs? It could save me lots on laundry! Posted by: Michelle at April 17, 2008 11:40 AM happens to the best of us. You seem like as big of a clutz as I am. Glad to know there are other people in the food business that can't walk straight, trip on something or spill something on themselves at least once a week (sometimes once a day for me). This isn't an insult by any means b/c if it was, I'd be insulting myself and who does that? Posted by: LiberalFoodie at April 17, 2008 11:59 AM So did the gravy taste good? You're not an idiot, you're a chef and you make people happy. Whenever I decide to get married will you come to New York and cater? Posted by: ride&cook at April 17, 2008 07:46 PM |
