Less than a Week...

In less than a week and I will be flying down to San Antonio start my adventure of cooking, cleaning, serving and washing dishes for The Cadets! I asked my son about what he wanted me to bring for him when I come down. His immediate answer was "Nothing, I am good." His next answer, received a couple of days later, was "Candy, quarters and some money."  The third was received tonight and it listed a few more items: "Wright's Silver Creme, Softscrub with Bleach, microfiber cloths,  and... money". I sense a theme here. I have my list too:

Cooking stuff:

1. Chefs Knives, Knife Roll, steel
2. IR Thermometer (The Cadets already have Thermapens!)
3. Thermocouple thermometer with long wired probe for calibration.
4. A select few recipes, scaled to 200, just in case.
5. Minor's Chicken Base

 Other stuff I think I will need:

1. Large Tervis Tumbler with Lid and Straw
2. Noise Cancelling Headphones
3. Ear plugs
4. Flash light
5. Battery-powered camp fan
6. Sunscreen
7. Hats/bandanas
8. Camera
9. Laptop
10. Plugs, cables, etc

I know this list will grow, and I have not even included the clothes I will bring. Based on the regions I am going and their recent temperatures (see last weeks temperature chart for San Antonio below), it will be shorts, t-shirts and a little rain gear.

Oh and money.
