  1. I am pouting because the Atlanta Viking Cooking School will be hosting
    Michael Ruhlman on a night I have to work and I won't be able to go.
    I've never attended a program there and wondered if anyone here has
    taking any of their programs? Enjoy it? Find it a good value for the
    cost? There are 11 Viking Cooking Schools around the country.

    Is he coming there to promote his new book, The Elements of Cooking?
    It is getting good reviews, for the most part...and is on my list...

    See todays Ruhlman blog entry. His book sounds great and I think I'll be
    getting it for myself and some gifts.

    Goomba, Any chance of taking off for that night?? This would be pretty
    special and if it is not going to happen again for awhile, might just
    be worth it.

    Yeah, it was up there this weekend. Bourdain did the intro to the
    book, I think.

    I do like Ruhlman so much. Have you read any of his books? I have
    his Chef series, and the cookbook he did with Eric Ripert, and the
    Bouchon cookbook. The first one he did with Thomas Keller is on my
    list too, but I doubt I will cook much from it, if I get it: The
    French Laundry Cookbook. Bouchon seems much more approachable to me.

    Hah!!!

    Do you know how hard it is for a nurse to get a night off?????? LOL. I
    am trying to find someone to trade with for a night when an old long
    lost friend is coming into town... Fat Chance!! Nurses can't just
    say they aren't coming in, unless they are sick... There has to be
    someone to cover for them...ie, another nurse to take their place. And
    one with the same skill set.

    Christine, who sometimes thinks that being a nurse is the pits.

    Do what I do and start coughing and blowing your nose often at
    work a couple days beforehand, then call in sick that night.

    You know you've done it right when they suggest you go home.

    Yeah, I'm considering how I could swing it?? It does sound like a great
    night to be there. We self schedule at work so I certainly would not
    have signed up to work that night had I but known enough in advance of
    his program. I have now signed up for email updates from Viking so
    perhaps I won't be behind the eight ball again.....

    Ruhlman and Bourdain will be in NYC together at a Barnes and Nobles next
    week. Lets meet up in NY and check 'em out! I could do that easily enough.

    Christine, who sometimes thinks that being a nurse is the pits.

    Thankfully I work with a great group of nurses and we cover for each
    other readily enough. I was thinking of asking one of the day shifters
    if I did their 7 AM to 12 PM hours, they could come in at noon and stay
    till 12 AM for me and then I'd be able to go to the program as well as
    work. We don't have to bother management with the details and it works
    nicely as then people aren't just calling off (we don't have to give a
    reason when we call in and say we won't be able to work) when they know
    they have something else going on.
