I am very happy to hear that you were writing your bucket list! I know that mine has completely changed my life and I hope yours does the same for you. Feel free to steal whatever you want from my list, that’s what it’s there for :)

I was writing my own bucket list tonight when I came across yours. It is inspiring. I might steal it :) Feel free to reach out via email, if it is possible, introduce yourself as the awesome bucket list blogger. Your life is an inspiration and I do not say that lightly.

Good question! I am great at multi-tasking and making to-do lists :)

You definitely will have to stop by if you are in the area!! Managing people is one of the most difficult aspects about my job. But, I hope that I am getting better at it after so many years.

I hope to visit Northern California one of these days. My parents are returning this week from a trip out west and were in your area. If I had known about this even a week ago I could have suggested they stop in. :-) I have had some family who ran restaurants at different times, and I got the impression it was more than enough work. I don’t cook nearly well enough and have no skill managing other people. :-) I do like to eat and drink though so I make a perfect customer. ;-) Thank you for answering some questions about your day job.

I would love to have you dine there :) Let me know if you are ever in northern California!

You are right, it is much harder than this post indicates. That’s why I’ve decided to add the category “restaurant life” to my blog, so I can share the triumphs, failures and frustrations. Besides, any time you have employees and customers humorous stories are bound to happen. Lots of them :)

I always wondered whether chefs go home and cook. Guess you answered that question. ;)

I would never want to own a restaurant. It seems so stressful and I would have imagined that you’d never get a day off. Plus, I’m just not creative in that particular way.

My husband, however, has long dreamed of owning a restaurant or bakery. I told him I’d work the register, but that’s about it. If it turns into a serious dream, I’ll be supportive, but I’m hoping it remains a pipe dream, because I think it’s much harder than you’ve let on in this post.
