COOK
& HOUSEKEEPER REQUIRED ~ Come find out where
and how to shop in France, visit the tradionel French market, come
get to know our local village butcher, baker and the spar, meet people
from all walks of life and from all points of the globe. The
most important member of the group as to be our Cook and house
keeper. Here is a chance to come and spend some time in France and be
part of something. The kids left home and maybe call once a week? come start your life again and use La Giraudiere as your kick off point. Use to feeding large groups? maybe you had 6 brothers and 6 sisters then come and feed us we need you. Maybe you are a proffessionel cook or Chef and fed up with the day to day pressure of todays commercial world? well come and cook for us and with us and take some time out. Last year, as with this year, the group will take turns preparing the evening meals this way we have a chance to either show off ,or sample something different. Last year I sampled cuisines from all round the world, French, Italina, New Zealand, Australia, America, Mexican, Indonesian, Chinesse, Indian, Japanesse, Russian, Holland and more "what a treat". Briefly this is what is exspected or what as past before, Breakfast is normally starts from 8.00 unless there is a real scorcher of a day on the way, then start time may be earlier if agreed the day before by the group. All that is required here is the laying of the table, bowls etc for cereals,toast, juices and of course start up the cafe or tea, So your day would be starting at about 7.30 Breakfast is normally finished by 8.45 at which time the rest of the group start work on their projects. After clearing away the breakfast things. A tour of the apartments just to check all is ok, prepare beds for any new arrivals, check towels and toileteries. Load the washing machine with any dirty bed linen or towelling. Might need to do a quick trip to the village for fresh bread or maybe something you have in mind for lunch. At about 10.30 we take on a cafe/tea break. Lunch is normaly prepared for 1.00 - 1.15 for the last few years lunch as comprised of a mixure of Saladeries, cold meats, eggs, etc as an entree followed by something hot like a Pizza, lasagne,stew or quiche etc etc, After lunch is cleared and when the group contiue with their respective projects it's time for checking what is required to stock up and maybe make sure we have what is needed for the evening meal and liase with whoever is preparing this evening. The cook or housekeeper is the same as the rest of the group and stays in the same accommodation as the rest we all eat together and participate in the same events and activities that are planned ~ No difference what so ever ftom the rest of the group. |
