KNIFE SKILLS

Almost 25 years ago, I began a year of culinary school.  I loved every minute from plaid pants to paper hats.  My mother the knives kit monogrammed.  I almost can’t wrap my brains around how long ago that was.  If 25 years feels like an eternity to me, just imagine how hard it is for me to wrap my brain around the 103 year history of this next Call.  There is something to be said for experience…
