Son Plated

in Off Topic
Didn't get to egg this busy weekend. Took HuskerMaMa to JIA for her trip to Denver (already miss her terribly). Cleaned out my work van (looked like a CAT5 hit it twice on the inside). Went to see our Son and ordered some eggs over medium, bacon and a pecan pancake. I had to laugh because he was training a new cook and as she was plating it he was like....No No No like this...see?  Made me smile proud.  Cracked me up and he's doing great.

    That's awesome to hear him taking pride in his work and showing others how to as well! Great reflection on his raising I'm sure.

    Looks like a good time and some good eats brother husker. I wish husker jr all the luck in the world with his career.

    @DMW Thanks. We always say if it's worth doing its worth doing it right the first time. And do it like you'd do it at your house or for yourself. I really hope he succeeds in all that he does.  He starts Chef school soon as he just received all his letters of recommendation and he is still pursuing his BA in business (his Associates will be complete this fall).  He's a busy guy with full-time school and almost full-time work. I'd love to go into business with him. We'll see...time will tell.  And ultimately I want him to do what makes him happy.
    Nice to hear $NPHuskerFL, you are a proud poppa and he sounds like a great kid.   It's awesome when do well, it's easy to be proud and happy.

    Over medium eggs are the best. When does he get turned loose on the egg? I hope your not waiting until he finishes chef school.

    That's awesome. I used to be in the restaurant business, and I loved it when my parents showed up.
