And of course the 2nd album on the new headphones

That shape is my shade, where I used to stand.

Got my new 1MORE SonoFlow headphones. The album I listened to was Wish you were here.

Kitchen routine.

my daily kitchen routine Get in about and hour before my team. Check every station for what sold last night (chicken, fish, shrimp, steaks, etc) Check the walk-in to see what back ups were used and the soups and sauces. The food delivery comes within the hour. We’re a scratch kitchen so we get deliveries 6 days a week. Fresh veggies, fish, meats and groceries.

Then I write the daily prep list on the white board. Typically if something arises needing a repair of missing product, I deal with it right then rather than adding it to a list. Once the team is in (3 cooks and a prep), I make sure they know what they need to do and have what they need to do it. I stay out of their way and back them up. My list includes cutting fresh fish (about 40#/day) and solving problems before they affect guests. I also prepare things that we missed or there was a late deilvery.

Fun


Lots of posts on the Things app update. Sounds interesting. I was a Things user for a long time when I managed at a high level at resort hotels. Now that I’m chef of a single restaurant, very little falls out of the daily routine, so I use Teux Deux. Easy to add and check off.


Apple Maps shows the Keauhou Beach hotel which closed about 6 years ago and was torn down about 3 years ago.


Watched “If these walls could talk” on Disney+. I’ll watch it again. I’m a music person. Amazing stories from the musicians from before the Beatles in Abbey Road.


Rewatching Dune 2021. This time with headphones.


We continue to have about 75% of applicants confirm an interview and never show.


I’ve been on Mastodon for quite a while, Ivory makes it better. The true nature of Twitter was masked by the quality of Tweetbot. it’s intolerable now.


My Wife and I went on date. Watched this cruise ship pulling out of Kona Bay at Sunset


Then there’s this. Saturday afternoon. Got off a little early kind of mood.

Sometimes we give, sometimes we don’t.

Looks like the Matter app won’t let me read anything until I go premium. Love the app, but don’t use it enough.


I’ve been working 7 days/wk since losing one of my 2 assts to a medical situation 2 weeks ago. Some days I do just go in for 90 min in the AM to let my cooks in and get them rolling. I have mostly a good team that knows their jobs. This way I can keep my total hours down.

This album came out in 1978. Doesn’t seem late long ago. It still sounds amazing.

Enjoying that glass of whisky on the back lanai

Yum


Just finished this bottle that I got for my birthday last year. Redbreast is my favorite so I tend to stretch it.

The glass says “ I’m here to kick ass and drink whisky, and pilgrim, I’m out of whisky. John Wayne

Very clear and calm morning, so the VOG (volcanic haze) will be bad. The tint of orange in the sunrise is from the VOG. Nice to see Mauna Loa peaking over Hualalai
