We had a rather slow day at the shop. We packed up work boxes to take to a jobsite on Monday, but otherwise were left with alot of free time. We spent a good deal of the morning talking with the owner of the company, known as Old White Bastard (his name for himself), and my two co-workers. The conversation turned to food and cooking, and we traded some recipies back and forth.*
This raised a jones to cook, especially with the weather being so nice here in DC at the moment, and I have an urge to be in the kitchen. There are two problems with this scenario.
1) I am broke at the moment, so cooking fancy food is out. I have been doing a lot of preparing, but not a lot of cooking.
2) Most of the things I cook are for more than one person, and the recipies don't halve well. It is difficult to make rissotto for one. I really enjoy cooking for other people, but don't get the opportunity to do so often.
And of course my AC does not work, so by the time I get paid, the weather will probably have gotten hot again. So even if I could find someone to cook for, it would be too uncomfortable in my apartment to do so.
So, if you want good food prepared for you in your airconditioned home, just let me know.
* It sometimes strikes me as odd to be working in construction and having conversations about fine dining.
