Runs with knives!
An unexpected change of plans tonight… I was scheduled to have GARDE MANGER class at Cincinnati State this evening. When I arrived at the school’s kitchen, it was apparent that our food cart — the requisitioned food items that we’re to use in the class —…
After work today, I drove directly to Newport Kentucky because it’s opening night of Wendy’s show at Falcon Theater — LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS! I stopped at Walgreen’s to pick up some Swedish Fish candy for the cast, then headed down to a restaurant that…
The second night of Wendy’s show, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, for Falcon Theater, so we drove down together and stopped to pick up a couple tacos at Taco Bell before the show. After the show (which was very good this evening), we all went to York Street Cafe for a late-night snack, though Dan & I stopped at Lightfoot’s for a few Fried Bologna Sandwiches, which we carried into York Street, much to the delight of the owner, who is now considering putting them on his menu!
Before attending this evening’s performance of LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS at Falcon Theater, I met Anne & Larry at Detroit Joe’s for dinner. You may remember Anne & Larry as the couple with whom we attended WICKED on March 9 of this year. We met…
Today and tonight we ate out, because we had our first technical rehearsal for THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW at Falcon Theater this evening. This first tech was the “cue-to-cue”, where the technical crew works through the entire show, from cue to cue. It’s boring and…
An incredibly simple dinner this evening because I was running far behind my time today. I was trying to get away from the office a few minutes early because the weather was bad. Bad weather (in this case, rain) and Cincinnati drivers do not mix! However, I couldn’t get out very early because we’re busy preparing for our accreditation visit at work. Added to that fact is that I am travelling tomorrow for business.
I got home and set to creating a sign — “ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!” — for decoration of the theater where we’re doing ROCKY HORROR SHOW (it’s at Falcon Theater if you want to attend!). I got it sketched onto the board and then it was time to go down to the theater for “First Tech”. I grabbed a breakfast bar, some yogurt, and a soda and was out the door.
First tech went well. Very well. Better than it should have, honestly. Typically first techs are a trainwreck, but this actually went quite well.
Another meal on the run tonight. I traveled to Wilberforce University today for a career fair so was on the road most of the day. I got home, gave the dogs a snack and the chance to stretch their legs outside for a while, and…
