Back in the Kitchen. Tomorrow, that is.

So I spoke with Chef the other about my application to the French Pastry School in Chicago, and that before I attend, I would like to return to the kitchen for a couple of weeks to train in the dessert section. Chef was kind enough to allow me to do to, and he welcomed me back with a hand shake. He, then, quickly introduced me to the new pastry chef, Laura, and we chatted for a bit about my experiences in Asia and what my plans are for the next few weeks.

Now, I find myself realizing in nervousness that I am actually returning to the kitchen scene after all these years of OFF scene. I'm worried that, what if I am not as good as I used to be, and that I become an embarrassment at work. I don't know. Maybe I worry too much?

In any case, I start my first day of training in the kitchen tomorrow, and I have no idea what to expect. I hope everything will be able, and I'll be able to manage and pull through. I'm sure if I get through the first week of the training, the rest will be just fine.
