Letter of Introduction

36921 5th ave SW Federal Way WA 98023 February 7, 2013 Dear Chef Blaylock, I want thank you accepting me into this program. I'm also very excited to learn new things about cooking. Being in this class will help me a lot later on in my goal of becoming a chef. I cook for my family and friends but I know that there are still a lot of things about cooking that I don't know and would love to learn in this class. I chose to be in this culinary arts program because I know that I want to be a chef when I'm older, and I wanted to start my education as soon as I could. I want to be a chef because I would get to cook every day and I can cook so many different things, so I won't be doing the same thing every day. By being in this class I hope to learn how to incorporate different foods together in a good way. I would also like to improve on my knife skills, and overall have a faster pace in cooking things. I like that this class is hands on. I'm not very good at taking notes or doing assignments, which makes this program perfect for me because I'm cooking almost everyday in here. I don't have a lot of experience in cooking other that me cooking for my family. I watch and helping my mom cook, it's interesting because she can get very creative with food, I learn a lot from her. There are many skills I want to gain from being in this class, like the proper way to use knifes and use them fast and effective. I will gain a better perspective on the way things work together in a dish. I will also learn how to cook food properly for someone in a certain amount of time. This class is my favorite part of my day. It makes me excited to wake up in the morning knowing that I can come here and cook food for people to buy and eat. I love that people are eating the food that I'm learning on. Knowing that people are eating the food i make puts a smile on my face and keeps me happy throughout the day. My
