A Day in the Life of a Chef Wife – December 2014

{This post contains affiliate links.}

Every month on the 10th day, I grab my camera and capture my day with 10 pictures.

Today started off early, getting up with my chef/husband and helping him pack for a 3 day business trip to work with one of his restaurants.  Packing for a chef is easy when all you have to worry about is chef pants and coats, underwear and socks.  Wish packing for myself was that easy when I went away!

He just LOVES it when I take pictures of him, so I chose not to this month.  You’re welcome honey!

So a day in the life a chef wife during the Christmas season . . . no time with the chef.  Are you surprised?  Nope.  But we are about halfway through the month!!  Only 19 days until January 2nd.  🙂

We said goodbye around 6:30 am as he left and I went back in the house to get my day started.

Breakfast?  Just kidding.  Just thought it was cute.

Another month has passed . . . too many leaves in our yard, another promotion for my chef/husband, still adjusting to having all the girls in school, Seattle Restaurant Week is over tonight (maybe we can see my husband for a minute!!), and now the holidays are just around the corner (which makes me miss my husband even more than I already do)!  Crazy.

In the midst of the craziness I found a few things entertaining . . .I learned there are 25 things chefs never tell you.  Hmmmm . . . not sure about all of those, but it’s an interesting read.

Going along with my husband’s obsession with Top Ramen, I found this article.  This looks much more like something I would eat.  (I refuse to eat Top Ramen!)

Apparently making grilled cheese in a pan has now become too difficult for some people.  I wonder if these actually work?

I came across this great article about the life of a chef’s wife.  Read it.  It’s wonderful! (more…)
