Portland Bound

Well… it’s been decided – we’re heading to Portland!

I’ve spent the last several weeks trying to figure out where we belong and it turns out it won’t be my decision at all.

One of the requirements for enrollment at the Culinary Institute of America (CA) is that I have to have 6 months foodservice experience before entering the school… this is something I don’t have (Starbucks doesn’t count) and won’t be able to get before school starts.   So… Portland here we come!

I’m happy with the result, it feels good to have a destination in mind.  I also know that if this school (Western Culinary Institute) turns out to be something different than I wanted or expected, Kris and I are open to re-transfering down to CA to give the CIA another attempt.  I know my mom is happy, what do YOU think?
