Been wanting to cook this mushroom pasta. The above consists of king oyster mushroom, swiss brown mushrooms, fresh shitakes and bits of dried porcini mushrooms. I never realised that mushrooms could hold such aromas and flavours. Heh, the water infused by soaking dried porcini mushrooms smells similar to Campbell’s mushroom soup. Yum.

Feeling a little more upbeat about interviews. Just piling on the job applications and waiting for phone calls. Didn’t quite make it in the previous job interview I was hoping on. Wasn’t quite expecting some questions and was not in the right frame of mind to answer them. I guess with all things, practice makes perfect. The response has been that my resume looks impressive enough for a face to face meeting. Now I just need to be able to market myself to a prospective employer. It may sound simple enough in interview tips but you really need to think it through and show what you are good at. Even if you have no experience with something, you just need to show that you are willing to learn and how you’d overcome those shortcomings.

Taking a side detour to the Grampians with Jerome tomorrow. It’s been 5 years since I’ve been there. Heh, bringing my 12-24 and the 70-300 as they fit snugly into my camera bag. The last time I was at the Grampians, I had my 35mm Nikon film camera and no knowledge other than just point and shoot. Hopefully I will bring back some more interesting pictures this time.
