Hey folks, I’ve been studying towards an MA in Food Studies (via the University of Adelaide) since last August. While I don’t have any concrete plans for what I’ll do with that learning once I finish, I must say that I’m really enjoying the study.
Instead of going to university after high school, I chose culinary school. That was over 20 years ago. Now, many kitchens, bakeshops, and countries later I’ve taken an extended break from the industry. It has felt good to step away, though on the other hand, there are aspects of kitchen life that I miss.
Luckily, I have found a way to step back into the life every now and again. I’ll be posting more about that in the future.
In the meantime, I hope you’ve liked reading some of the pieces I’ve done as assignments for my Food Writing class. There are two more to come, a piece of creative writing on the topic of dining alone, and a longer restaurant review. I may also put up some of my writing from last semester, so stay tuned.
