Hannah, I've come late to SE and your writing, but have enjoyed it. I'll miss it, and I hope you will take up your blogging gift again soon. Looking forward to learning what group you're with. If they operate in the MidWest we will give any Chicago operations a try.

Lived in Santa Barbara for six years - some time ago - and SoCal is an entirely different world. Hope you like it. It may be a little harder to live there since the state iwent broke.

How bittersweet but welcome to LA & congrats on landing the gig! Will be seeing a "Managed" here on SE soon?

Anyhow, hopefully we'll have a chance to meet (and eat, and drink) when you're here!

Well done, Hannah. Good to hear that you're moving in the direction that you'd like to go. I've read your blog for about a year now, through Serious Eats, and it's always been one of the features I look forward to.

Also, six months ago, one of my very good friends moved to LA to do a restaurant management program that sounds suspiciously similar to the one you've described. She's loving it and all the opportunities that come with it. Maybe I'll tell her to look out for you...

Good luck with everything!

as an angeleno, curiosity has gotten the better of me... what restaurant will you be working with? if you can't tell me, i'd love a clue!

Mazel tov!

Congratulations, Hannah. I'm jealous. :) You grab life with gusto and embrace it with all you have ... and it will reward you. Best of luck, and please keep writing. You have a talent for it.

Congrats on the job =) I, too, just moved from the east coast to SoCal and it warms my heart everytime I hear someone else making the same move. You're going to love it here. There's so much to do and it instantly feels like home!!

will really miss your column here on SE -- was always a bright spot on the page.... well, this is the way of life .... one door closes, another opens.
it all sounds so exciting, good for you, hannah. please try to keep us posted when you get the new stuff under your belt.

best wishes, pooch!

Congratulations Hannah!!
I'm sure you're gonna love it, too bad we won't have Served anymore, I really enjoyed your stories and your writing...maybe in the future you'll write another blog about your new life.
We'll miss you!

no knead.

Using cheese rind to flavor my pastina soup. Love it for the taste and how frugal it is not to waste anything. Good cheese costs alot.

No knead bread, but I like the one someone posted just ahead of mine, too - Salt is important. Don't be afraid of salt.
