Well done, Jeremy!
WOD: 6:41 (I had a bar like over there and added 12.5 kgs so I think it adds up to about 73lbs). Tried to keep a good form!
This may be of interst to somebody. Its a letter to Young Chef’s from a Basque conference. Bunch of heavy hitters attended and I dig the sentiment expressed. Figured I’d post it here as I think it echoes the sentiment behind the Paleo philosophy pretty well. That, and as a professional chef, I whole heartedly agree with it.
To all of you, we direct this reflection, entitled An Open Letter
to the Chefs of Tomorrow and signed in Lima on September 10,
2011.

Declaración de Lima
Dear chef,
In relation with nature
1. Our work depends on nature’s gifts. As a result we all
have a responsibility to know and protect nature, to use
our cooking and our voices as a tool for recovering
heirloom and endangered varieties and species, and
promoting new ones. In this way we can help protect the
earth’s biodiversity, as well as preserve and create
flavors and preparations.
2. Over the course of thousands of years, the dialogue
between humans and nature has created agriculture. We
are all, in other words, part of an ecological system. To
ensure that this ecology is as healthy as possible, let’s
encourage and practice sustainable production in the field
and in the kitchen. In this way, we can create authentic
flavor.
In relation with society
3. As chefs, we are the product of our culture. Each of us is
heir to a legacy of flavors, dining customs and cooking
techniques. Yet we don’t have to be passive. Through our
cooking, our ethics, and our aesthetics, we can contribute
to the culture and identity of a people, a region, a
country. We can also serve as an important bridge with
other cultures.
4. We practice a profession that has the power to affect the
socio-economic development of others. We can have a
significant economic impact by encouraging the
exportation of our own culinary culture and fomenting
others’ interest in it. At the same time, by collaborating
with local producers and employing fair economic
practices, we can generate sustainable local wealth and
financially strengthen our communities.
In relation with knowledge
5. Although a primary goal of our profession is to provide
happiness and stir emotions, through our own work and
by working with experts in the fields of health and
education, we have a unique opportunity to transmit our
knowledge to members of the public, helping them, for
example, to acquire good cooking habits, and to learn to
make healthy choices about the foods they eat.
6. Through our profession, we have the opportunity to
generate new knowledge, whether it be something so
simple as the development of a recipe or as complicated
as an in-depth research project. And just as we have each
benefited from the teaching of others, we have a
responsibility, in turn, to share our learning.
In relation with values
7. We live in a time in which cooking can be a beautiful form
of self-expression. Cooking today is a field in constant
evolution that includes many different disciplines. For
that reason, it’s important to carry out our quests and
fulfill our dreams with authenticity, humility, and above
all, passion. Ultimately, we are each guided by our own
ethics and values.
Wait, there is another Rob AND a Robert at our box? I think this is a great opportunity for nicknames for all newly arrived Robs and Rob derivations. I am open to suggestions on their behalf. 🙂
Ahh, there are so many nicknames for “Robert”… Robby(ie), Bob, Bobby, Rob-Bob (yes, I know one of these) and, my personal favorite: Bert.
Although I am sure it is up to the MPH Gods, I suspect you are correct in assuming that you have the right to keep “Rob,” Rob, since you are the first.
Wait—“Bert” is an option? That’s amazing news, Mike, but probably not for our boy,
RobBert.John
Ouch.
