Great to hear that you're employed again; unemployment has hit MI in particular quite hard. Ought to cut down on your food budget too; cooks have it made!

Congratulations Alex. Is cooking something that is/was in your background?

good news! You may find that other doors will soon open to you. Seemed like anytime I took a job I would get calls on a couple others around the same time.
