...Well, at least it's felt that long since I posted last.
I finished up my classes on the 11th and as hard as it was, I left San Francisco and returned to SoCal. It was a year with mostly good but some bad times as well, and I was fortunate to meet and become friends with a diverse group of people. I'll return to the city by the bay one day to teach at the academy once I've proven myself in the "real world."
But for the time being I can be found cooking up a storm in a restaurant at a winery right outside of Temecula, CA. Today will actually be my first day working there since I had to wait for my drug screen results to come back. I don't know what they were looking for, but the fact that I spent a year in S.F. might have something to do with it :lol: I'm just glad they don't test for Cuban tobacco otherwise I'd be screwed :wink:
To everyone that participated in the blind cigar taste test with me, I apologize for the huge delay in finishing this up. By next week I should be done with all the great smokes you guys and gal sent me.
I don't know what kind of hours I'll be working but I can tell you I'll be putting in some long days...which is fine by me since this is the life I've chosen. If any of you happen to be in the area, stop by and say hi. In the meantime, I'll be posting as often as I can...that is, if I can find the time between all the catching up with posts that I have ahead of me!
