it was a kindle

Lundy

hello

Thompson

welcome. perfect timing, we're starting a new one

Thompson

it's calledMise en Place

Kowalski

what does that mean

Thompson

it's a cooking term. everything in its place before you start. you prep it all, you line it up, then you cook

Marchetti

oh that's Soucy's entire nervous system

Mueller

that is a sound kitchen principle actually. mise en place is the only reason a line functions under volume

Thompson

Mueller we're three words into the title

Mueller

i'm establishing that the title is at least competent. the bar is low. the last one called a zamboni a "machine"

Thompson

ANYWAY. it's about a private chef who lives in this rich guy's house and runs the whole place. cooks every meal. knows the guy better than the guy knows himself. completely in love with him and has said nothing for like four years

Lundy

four years is a long time to say nothing

Berger

Thompson
