Boiled cream over again...

I boiled over cream for the FIFTH TIME.  Lol it's turning into a joke with my co-workers.  We got a new guy named Tom.  It is interesting not being the noobie anymore.  I'm realizing that I really know my way around our kitchen now.  It's cool being able to help him and point him in the right direction.  But then I boil cream over again, and I realize I still have a lot to learn.  I got rave reviews on my mac and cheese the client asked for the recipe, my chef joking added, "be sure to boil over the cream."  My first recipe request from a client!  I have had friends ask for recipes before but no one paying for my food has.  I think I will start a specific post to just add recipes too.  Meanwhile enjoy the pics!
