For the last few weeks.. we have been invited for BBQs at friends and families.  One friend was going away. .and another had a son going to college.  But the last BB! for this summer.. is because of  used Harleys.  Yes..! one of the guys.. had some to sell, i think he is looking to get a new model .. before winter.  I’m looking forward to it.. well .. mostly because i love BBQs and secondly .. who can resist a trail ride around the estate with a Harley right..?

I don’t know about you .. but i sure missed those hotel cocktails that i had to attend every Tuesday.. because I was a management staff in the hotel i worked for.  These cocktails are meant to get to know your long staying guests.. and corporate clients.  You get to meet some very interesting people during these cocktails.. besides sampling those finger food that i loved.   But conversations were always interesting.. and some even asked to give you term life insurance quotes during these cocktails.  Yes..! yer right. some of our corporate clients are from the insurance industry.

BBQ With Cousins From Ontario

The man’s cousins and nephews and their friends are in town from Ontario.. and of course.. with such good weather.. we had to invite them for BBQing.. for those who knows me.. knows how much i love to BBQ.  But the man and the boys were more interested in his new video cards that he had in stock in his store.. than eating those gorgeous beef that i bought.  Who said men are always boys.. but only their toys gets more expensive each year.

I had the misfortune of working with one of the executive chef back home but luckily not directly under him. .or anywheres near him. I was in communications .. so I had to liaise with him every now and then for the hotel’s promotions. Being his co-worker was the most unfortunate event of my life.. because he was not only grouchy.. but thought he was a genius (so entitled to being a grouch) .. and he had such a messy love life.

Everytime i bumped into him. .in a night spot.. he thought i was spying on him..!!!! GOT TIME..!!! Anyhow.. he thought he was a casanova.. and that all women should fall on his feet. Sad eh..?? Of course, when me and my friends.. didn’t even acknowledged him. .when we met him outta work area.. he felt slighted… and well.. of course he wasn’t too happy. Hurt his ego .. i think. I’m wondering if all executive chefs are like that..?? And because of this particular person.. i never wanna have anything to do with any executive chefs.
