Hi, everyone.
2
Hope you're having a nice day.
3
Today, I have a very special guest named Elise, who has been my closest friend since I moved to Asheville, North Carolina.
4
She's originally from Maryland, right next to D .C.
5
She's half French, half American, Native English speaker.
6
Today, she is on the show to talk about firsts.
7
And I love this topic not just
8
because it sheds light on somebody's experiences doing things for the first time
9
and usually first have a story that go along with them, but it's also a great way to start using the past perfect.
10
I'll give you one example in 2005 I went to Europe
11
for the first time I went to Switzerland before 2005 I
12
had never been to Switzerland I had never been to Europe I had never been to the Alps
13
so yeah it's a great way to start practicing these things you can also apply this to the stories
14
that you hear from Elise today, she's going to share a lot of fun ones.
15
You'll hear about her experience at culinary school in France, living in Hawaii, working on a coffee plantation, and so much more.
16
I hope you enjoy this episode.
17
Hi, Elise.
18
Hey, Shauna.
19
How's it going?
20
Oh, good.
21
How are you?
22
Good.
23
Sorry the room is so hot.
24
Oh, no, not bad at all.
25
Not too humid in here?
26
No. Yeah.
27
I'm sweating because I'm nervous, but not because the room is hot.
28
Yeah, it doesn't help having a microphone, I think, in front of your face and I don't know.
29
It's the first time.
30
First time, you know, firsts.
31
Is this your first time on mic?
32
Yeah.
33
I mean, in this podcast format, for sure okay have you done any improv with um a little bit of improv no mics
34
mics i don't something on stage announcing stuff i know
35
that i've held a microphone before cool just
36
so you guys know elise is my newest friend from ashville north carolina we met through other friends
37
and now she's here on the podcast we're going to talk about first i'm really excited about it.
38
And I'd like to start out by getting to know Elise a little bit better, I guess for the sake of you guys knowing who she is.
39
So do you mind sharing a little bit about yourself?
40
Sure.
41
So I grew up in the D .C.
42
metropolitan area in Maryland, one of Shauna's favorite states.
43
Yeah, I suggested that she be on the Discover Maryland episode, but she's like, nobody needs to know about maryland just a lot of crabs
44
that's pretty much it oh see that's already interesting blue crabs
45
from the chesapeake bay it's it's a thing okay that's exciting
46
can you eat them you can eat them they're a delicacy
47
a lot of crab cakes as well did not know
48
that old bay seasoning it's from maryland that's from maryland yeah what are you supposed to do with
49
that literally put it on crabs and other seafood
50
but mostly crabs i thought it was a very southern thing to have Old Bay.
51
I always see it at the supermarket, but I've never known what to do with it.
52
They may have usurped it, but it is definitely our seasoning.
53
It's the one thing I can stand on.
54
Yeah.
55
So anyway, I grew up in the Maryland area.
56
My mom was American.
57
My dad is French.
58
So I have like a bicultural thing going on, which you can relate to with your Brazilian
59
and american sides with your kids yeah
60
and elise also married a brazilian yeah married a brazilian yeah
61
so she's got the french brazilian connection yeah yeah
62
and she's also the owner of the french needle yeah
63
which is an incredible business well that's very sweet yep it's
64
a small online needle work boutique cross stitch embroidery all different kinds of goodies to to do
65
that kind of stuff yeah Yeah, I'll link it in the episode notes if you guys want to check it out.
66
Very cool stuff.
67
Very beautiful embroidery on there and other crafty things.
68
So let's hear a little bit more about you.
69
You have a lot of interests.
70
When I first met you, I was like, wait, she was a yoga instructor.
71
She was a massage therapist.
72
She was in culinary school.
73
She went to, I mean, tell us a little bit about all of these different interests, because I think there's a lot of firsts that we can talk about related to these things. For sure.
74
I mean, you summed it up very well.
75
You have a great memory.
76
So I went to a French international school.
77
No tea, no shade, but it's very academically grueling.
78
And sort of as a counter reaction, I really wanted to use my hands.
79
So after high school, I really had my eyes set on going to culinary school
80
with the long -term goal of opening a coffee shop or a restaurant one day.
81
So that's exactly what I did.
82
Not open a restaurant or coffee shop, but right after high school, I went to a school called the Paul Becuse Institute in Lyon, specialized in pastry.
83
capital of France, right?
84
Sure is.
85
Yeah.
86
So that's the place to be to go to school and learn from all the specialists out there.
87
Yeah, yeah.
88
There's sort of a rivalry, actually, between Ferrandi in Paris and l 'Institut Paul Bocuse in Lyon.
89
They're sort of like the top schools, whatever, but it's all sort of silly.
90
But yeah, it's where I went.
91
And so that brings me to my first question, I guess, because it fits right into this.
92
What was the first food you learned to cook?
93
Because you don't just go from graduating high school and then just saying, hey, I'm going to culinary school, right?
94
Or did you start with some eggs, some omelets?
95
Yeah, I actually, I always liked to bake.
96
So when I was about 12, my grandma and I were trying to create some cream puffs.
97
And I spent a really long time perfecting this recipe.
98
And it's the one I use to this day, despite having, you know, more professional recipes from school.
99
I just love that recipe.
100
So cream puffs were my first thing.
101
It's a very intense first food to make.
102
Yes and no. From a French background, I think that makes sense.
103
Yeah.
104
And cream puffs in general, what are you supposed, is that like a cafe d 'atargi, like afternoon snack with coffee?
105
Or when do you eat those?
106
Yeah, I would say probably afternoon or maybe when you would have dessert, if that's after lunch or after dinner.
107
I don't know.
108
We're like three times a day dessert people in my household.
109
Oh, wow.
110
So coffee in the morning with cake?
111
100%.
112
It was a mid -morning snack, usually sweet thing with your coffee.
113
Yeah.
114
Afternoon bite of goyabada.
115
sure yeah love
116
that yeah i actually just bought these tartlets with guava from
117
not whole foods trader joe did you want those two okay what do you think yeah uh very crumbly
118
and yeah it's not the same as the flavor in brazil
119
and i was trying to decide i was going to actually ask you guys
120
if you wanted to try some oh funny yeah we just
121
got a box um okay all right sorry we went off
122
sorry going on a tangent here also related to this first job
123
because did you just go straight into culinary school
124
and then start working from there and that was your first job no so
125
when i brought this dream to the table my mom said absolutely not you're going to go to business school
126
and do the sensible thing and my dad sort of saw the sparkle in my eye and he said okay, like, let's try to find you a job in the professional environment
127
and make sure it really clicks before you put all your eggs in one basket.
128
And so, yeah, when I was 16, we, we used to spend summers in a small village in France called Beugneux.
129
So we were going to the same village and there was a newish restaurant that had opened up called L 'Erebleu.
130
And yeah, I mean, I met with the chef.
131
My dad had sort of negotiated things beforehand.
132
Like it wasn't nice.
133
I walked in and whatever, but, um, yeah.
134
And then I worked there.
135
That was my first real job with a paycheck.
136
Okay.
137
So two things, two follow -ups for that.
138
What did you do with your first paycheck?
139
And what was that environment like working in a restaurant for the first time?
140
Because I don't know if I ever shared this with you, but I used to work in a French restaurant.
141
Oh, my gosh.
142
No, tell me more.
143
So when I when I graduated from UC Santa Barbara, there was a restaurant opening called Cafe Stella in Santa Barbara.
144
And the owner owned a very, very famous like French restaurant in Montecito, which is a really rich area of California called Stella Mari.
145
And I think it was named after his wife and his daughter, maybe something like that.
146
And he wanted to create a restaurant that was American diner experience, but really good quality food at like a decent price point.
147
But as a hostess, I was running back
148
and forth with the plates helping clean up when there was not people at the front coming in.
149
And, yeah, I can imagine being in a high -quality restaurant.
150
I don't know what you would technically call it.
151
High -quality.
152
Fine dining.
153
Fine dining.
154
It seems even more intense.
155
Yeah, I mean, the fast -paced, it sounds like you're describing sort of like a brasserie setting.
156
Okay.
157
Which is very fast -paced.
158
Usually it's a big room, so you have a lot of tables.
159
Yeah.
160
That's kind of one of the characteristics of that style of restaurant.
161
but yeah people come in just for comfort food they you know they know it's consistent
162
so that's really fun you got to have your hand in there yeah
163
but i mean i feel like the clientele's a little bit different
164
when you have fine dining do you have a lot of
165
complainers yeah fine dining is is different usually it's you know
166
much smaller a much higher price point usually it's coursed out
167
there are many table side rules you know the waiters have
168
a lot more to do usually there's sort of a performance aspect to it.
169
Like they're going to come pour the soup in your bowl or light something up on fire in front of you or, you know, kind of make a show of it.
170
Yeah.
171
Sort of like the performance you did for me at our first lunch at your house.
172
No, Shauna, that was very low stakes.
173
No, no, no. Very different.
174
No.
175
I had no idea that you once worked in a Michelin star restaurant
176
and I went over to her house
177
and she had actually grilled her own croutons for the soup
178
a proper like all the details were to a t appetizer
179
salad main dish perfection that's very sweet i was probably very excited to host you
180
but yeah making your own croutons is an attainable goal yeah
181
if you're out there thinking can i do it you can
182
do it are croutons it sounds like something it sounds like a french word do they have croutons there yeah
183
so it's it means like hard bread oh like okay crusty
184
yeah crust right crust yeah well it was a very nice
185
meal oh that's that's sweet i'm glad you enjoyed it yeah okay
186
so we jumped from the first thing you learned to cook
187
your first job You didn't answer the question about your first paycheck, which I'm curious about.
188
I mean, it's probably because I'm not too proud.
189
Listen, I was 16 in Europe, and that means you can have beer if you want it.
190
Yeah.
191
So I'm pretty sure that's where that money went, just like hanging out with the crew.
192
I think we talked about this, but you can order a pint of beer.
193
So you say une demi -pêche.
194
So it means like a pint of beer with a little bit of peach syrup
195
or une demi -malt or whatever so
196
that is what i was drinking with my paycheck money very nice yeah it's funny how they do
197
that in europe in general like in germany it was the
198
banana soft like the banana juice i guess it's nectar technically
199
because it's not very liquidy it's very syrupy and it's good is it clear no no No,
200
it's, yeah, I mean, it's just the color of a banana.
201
But then, yeah, they pour it in the bottom of the big, I guess they use like half pint?
202
No, not half pint, half liter glasses in Berlin.
203
And then, yeah, the rest is filled up with, I can't remember if it's Hefeweizen or some sort of beer.
204
it's good though is that in a schooner
205
or in a what are they certain no yeah i wish
206
my internet was working properly otherwise i would show you an image of it
207
but it's the tall skinny glasses okay yeah kind of more narrow at the bottom yeah
208
and then yeah is this like any type of any time
209
of day you would drink it yeah okay yeah i mean at german university they actually have beer in the cafeteria.
210
Wow.
211
And it's very cheap in the cafeteria in Germany.
212
So people are like taking advantage of that.
213
Fun.
214
Yeah.
215
So my next question for you, because I think this is just fun for everybody.
216
Do you remember your first driving lesson?
217
Yes.
218
So at our school, we had the option to take a driving course.
219
So it was, you know, X amount of money and you stayed after school and there's, you know, this mandatory classes before you could get behind the wheel.
220
I distinctly remember that teacher.
221
He just had like a fun accent and he would tell us to be careful.
222
Look at the markings on the road.
223
Like he had a very slow voice and he was really worried about our safety.
224
But once I got behind the wheel, that went right out the window.
225
And I'm like, You know, you don't have the notion of how hard you can press on either the gas or the brake.
226
Yep.
227
And so I remember being in the Holy Redeemer parking lot with my mom, which is like a Catholic church down our street that we used to go to.
228
So it's like, potentially I could run over my priest.
229
But luckily, nothing bad really happened.
230
I just remember that.
231
Like speeding around the parking lot.
232
Yeah.
233
And just how that little power really makes you go.
234
So, yeah, that's actually what the guy, what would we call the person that goes with you typically when you're in driving school?
235
The driving instructor?
236
Driving instructor.
237
Yeah, that's it.
238
There's probably a better name.
239
No, that's it.
240
He said that I had a lead foot, which is basically, yeah, you step on the gas, you go a little bit too hard.
241
One of the things I remember from driving school were the horrible videos.
242
Did you guys have to watch a lot of car crashes and DUIs and people getting arrested?
243
Yeah, they really drove the DUI point home.
244
But I don't remember video footage.
245
Okay.
246
I want to know, did you have to parallel park for your driving test?
247
I don't think so.
248
No, we did not have to parallel park.
249
No, I had to think about it for a second.
250
Because I was really worried about this you had to back up 100 feet and not hit the curb.
251
So you're backing up straight into the curb and you just can't hit it?
252
Or you're backing up like this and you can't?
253
Yeah, you have to back up straight, like looking over your shoulder and using your mirrors properly, and then back up 100 feet as part of the driver's test.
254
That was not a problem for me.
255
Did you have to parallel park?
256
I did have to parallel park.
257
Oh my gosh.
258
Yeah.
259
And I couldn't tell you what it is, but a three -point turn yeah is that
260
when you back up into a space i actually don't know
261
okay we should not be driving um oh man yeah no
262
but did you pass the first time i did not me either
263
because i couldn't parallel park girl
264
but that's actually probably really important on the east coast i feel more
265
so than the west coast we have like ample parking spaces i feel in most in most areas
266
Maybe not in San Francisco.
267
That'd be really important to know how to parallel park in San Francisco.
268
So you got an automatic fail?
269
Automatic fail.
270
That's a rough way of putting it.
271
But yeah, essentially that's what happened.
272
And then the second time, I sort of didn't stop at a stop sign, but the person was cool.
273
And we just kind of finished the thing and I passed.
274
Oh my gosh.
275
That's funny.
276
Which one should we do now?
277
What was your first part?
278
I mean, I learned to drive in my mom's Nissan Altima.
279
And then I didn't drive for many years.
280
And when I went to school in Europe, I just rode the trains and walked, took the bus.
281
How was that coming back from Europe?
282
Well, I mean, yeah.
283
So I sort of jumped to Hawaii, which is very different than Europe.
284
But I was told that it was super easy to get around and you can even hitchhike sometimes.
285
It's no big deal.
286
Everybody's so cool.
287
And that's a total myth.
288
I mean, it may have been true in like the 80s or something.
289
So were you hitchhiking around?
290
To get your thumb up at the gas station and hoping someone would pick you up?
291
Yes.
292
Really?
293
The first chapter of Hawaii when I was working on a farm
294
and like living with five or six other girls
295
so i was never alone hitchhiking we were always just like
296
trying to make it to town okay uh can you share a little bit more about
297
that because people are probably like how did you end up in hawaii yeah was
298
that your first time going to hawaii
299
when you ended up there uh -huh yeah and was
300
that your first time visiting a coffee plantation yeah definitely your
301
first time working at one probably totally yeah not my first cup of coffee
302
but everything else was a first for sure yeah i moved to hawaii
303
because again with this long -term goal of opening a coffee
304
shop i wanted to learn the bean to cup route
305
and understand the agricultural side of things
306
so after a summer in pennsylvania sort of doing a rotation
307
a self -made rotation on different farms like a dairy farm
308
and then i did a lot of like gleaning do you know what gleaning is no but i'm confused right now.
309
I just made the connection that this all goes back to opening a coffee shop and there were all these phases.
310
Yeah.
311
There was once a logic, but we've now lost the plot.
312
Wow.
313
Sorry.
314
Continue.
315
Yeah.
316
No, no. So that time in Pennsylvania opened my eyes to this thing called woofing, which is Worldwide Organization of Organic Farmers.
317
And that's when I saw that I could travel and work in exchange for cool experiences.
318
And so you did multiple experiences.
319
One with a dairy farmer in Pennsylvania.
320
Was it an Amish farm?
321
It was not.
322
No. So those were actually not through woofing.
323
I just had some really good friends in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania who knew some people.
324
But through those different experiences, I heard about woofing.
325
And then my first woofing experience was moving to Hawaii to work on a coffee farm in Kona.
326
Okay.
327
Wow.
328
And what was like the best thing about that experience?
329
Or the worst?
330
I don't have a lot of great things to say.
331
No, no. It was fun.
332
It's very tiring as a lot of agricultural activities are.
333
Sorry to interrupt, but what was your day like?
334
Did you have to wake up at like four in the morning with the farmers?
335
There was an early morning for sure because it gets hot and humid.
336
So you kind of want to be done with your work day at like two.
337
And then I'm sort of forgetting, but like the stakes of the week, it was all sort of building up to this market that happened on Friday.
338
so there were normal coffee activities you know picking cherry pulping the cherry laying out the parchment
339
so it dries kind of rotating that and then
340
when it was ready roasting which is really fun you like wait for the first crack
341
and it smells like that coffee oil release is really special
342
so that that was always kind of going on
343
and then there was also this whole other side
344
and why I was attractive to them was to bake goods to sell with their coffee at this market on Friday.
345
No way.
346
So did you do that?
347
Yeah.
348
When you were there?
349
Yeah.
350
I did that for maybe six weeks.
351
Okay.
352
Yeah.
353
Why only six weeks?
354
Was that how long the experience was?
355
Yeah.
356
You sort of sign up for a term more or less.
357
And so they made a lot of profit when you And then you left and they're like, no, a lot of able girls like nothing was crazy,
358
but they definitely trusted me a little extra, which is nice.
359
But there were just a lot of social dynamics.
360
The farm was run by two women who were a couple.
361
And, you know, some of the crunchy dynamics in their relationship.
362
And then the cabin was full of girls from all different walks of life and
363
so first time living in a sorority house pretty much yeah
364
totally very different energy than the culinary school people not in
365
a great way no it was in a good way like there were some great moments
366
and then i was very much ready to get a car
367
and get out of there yeah yeah make make sense yeah
368
but i mean living in hawaii versus maryland versus north carolina i mean what's the
369
big difference obviously it's different but like what are the things that stand out to you as very different.
370
Yeah.
371
I mean, not to bring it to the negative, but the cost of living in Hawaii is really crazy.
372
So I got very lucky in a way to make it work for so long.
373
I lived there for five years.
374
But in terms of growing a life and establishing a family there,
375
I think it's just difficult if you don't have the financial means or already some family there. But Maryland
376
and north carolina environmentally look a lot alike okay where i
377
grew up in here it's you know same trees same vegetation
378
and like animals so not that different
379
but definitely like a blue sky all year which is nice yeah
380
when i think of hawaii i think of okay i mean obviously there's like different vibes on the different islands
381
and stuff they're very very different you were on the big island right correct yeah yeah
382
and then you go to oahu and it's very touristy
383
and there's a lot of resorts and
384
but the beaches are really nice yeah i mean that's what attracts people
385
so many people for sure yeah i miss the pacific a lot yeah yeah we were i mean
386
if you know the big island at all like ali 'i drive is pretty famous
387
and so we were living on ali 'i drive
388
and we had a little spot we would go i just jump in the water every day
389
that i miss do you remember your first time swimming in the Pacific Ocean?
390
Probably, yeah.
391
We had secured a car with these girls from the farm.
392
And we went down to this beach called Kua Bay, which still is one of my favorite beaches on the Big Island.
393
It's really beautiful.
394
And it was around sunset time.
395
And they were sort of teaching me.
396
I didn't grow up with the ocean.
397
I'd obviously, you know, I've been, but these girls were from California.
398
So they kind of knew what was up.
399
They were telling me, okay, if you see the wave, like jump or go under, you know, depending on the height.
400
So yeah, I remember kind of like wading in the water with them.
401
So wait, do you?
402
Yeah.
403
Sorry.
404
So before they taught you that, were you?
405
i just like had first facing the wave
406
and letting it pummel you no no but they they were like swimming out and
407
so they were kind of like guiding me through it no
408
no i no no i got you no i i had um
409
that moment too with i had this friend heika
410
and she was actually really into hiking which is kind of funny um
411
and she was also really proactive like shauna you should do this you should do
412
that like let's go surfing and in in santa barbara there's an adventure club
413
and they had a backyard full of surfboards and wetsuits
414
and you could just go in their backyard whenever you wanted put them on
415
and go to the beach the opportunity was always there and
416
so heiko was like no you have to do it come on let's go and
417
so she also was the teacher of these sorts of things
418
like go under you're gonna get really tired like make sure you're in like a good position
419
so that you can get back out quickly
420
and it's a lot of work to swim out in the ocean oh yeah i mean
421
when you're surfing it's like 100 about your shoulders like paddling
422
out is that's it yeah all right elise my next question for you is
423
when was the first time you realized you were becoming an adult
424
this question is really funny to me
425
so i mean all roads really lead back to my 16
426
year old self is what i'm realizing with this chat but it was that same era of working in a restaurant
427
and at this point i was probably like a month in
428
and i remember walking down the steps there's sort of a terrace
429
and coming down probably going on my break
430
and feeling in my body just pain and fatigue
431
and i 16 yeah oh my gosh i mean you were
432
working 12 hour days yeah you're on your feet all day
433
and a lot of new foreign things coming at you
434
and i just remember thinking oh this is what tired is
435
like this is what adults have been saying like i'm
436
so tired i never really understood what that meant until
437
that moment wow and so you remember actually walking yeah
438
that feeling like oh my love her back like oh
439
so what do you do what did you do back then to alleviate the pain
440
that tiredness just just kept going sleep for 24 hours
441
and then do yoga did were you doing yoga back then
442
uh at 16 i was not what was i showers napping
443
you know comfort stuff eating cream puffs eating yeah drinking coffee that's i think
444
when that really kicked in yeah yeah
445
and wine too uh 16 no wine you know was always sort of available my parents were very you know
446
if you want to try whatever
447
so i was like oh this is lame they're asking me to do it um
448
but beer kind of felt a little more like you're breaking
449
the rules yeah like yeah oh that's too funny too good yeah yeah Yeah.
450
How was, I mean, you grew up in like wine country.
451
Yeah.
452
So wine was part of the conversation, right?
453
Yeah.
454
My first ex -boyfriend, my first boyfriend.
455
Yeah.
456
He owned a winery in my town where I grew up.
457
And so we used to go out there and his dad always had a glass of wine, like swirling a glass of wine in his hand.
458
And I remember, yeah, I was 16 and I didn't try.
459
I feel like there was a lot of missed opportunity.
460
Now I think about it and I'm like, man, that's crazy that we were right there.
461
And now if anyone goes out there, you can actually go visit my ex -boyfriend's house.
462
It was his house and it turned into a winery.
463
So if you're in Green Valley in California, it's called the Blue Victorian.
464
And that's where I essentially hung out all the time
465
when I was 16 that's so cool yeah so is
466
that weird for you there's like a museum component to your
467
life oh no i went i went back probably i don't know sometime in my 20s
468
and i went back through like oh this is where this used to be
469
and this is where that used to be and
470
it's really cute anyway there's a lot of wineries out there
471
now it's turning into like a mini napa out there very
472
very cool wow yeah um a lot of white wines from your region or kind of a mix So, for example, if you go to Sonoma,
473
they have a lot of Chardonnay.
474
In Napa, it's like Cabernet Sauvignon.
475
And then like a lot of people jumped on the Pinot Noir train when like Santa Barbara was in that Sideways movie.
476
I don't know if you remember that.
477
It popularized Pinot Noir.
478
And so and then a lot of vineyards in like that general area started growing Pinot Noir, too.
479
Interesting.
480
Very profitable.
481
Yeah.
482
I know they do a lot of that in Oregon and Washington.
483
which to me makes a little bit of sense because of like weather wise it resembles a lot
484
like the burgundy vibe oh yeah yeah but where you are feels very warm
485
and dry yeah kind of worried about the pinot okay yeah well i don't know
486
if it's good or not i haven't tried too much
487
but you got to go out there
488
and you can you can tell me what you think i
489
mean i'm sure they're doing a great job yeah um is there any other last one
490
that you want to go through are you firsts
491
first movie you saw in theater what is the first movie you saw in theater the first one i remember
492
well i remember lion king and i remember going to see titanic with my parents
493
and i thought
494
that was a murder scene what was happening in the car
495
like he's killing her why is nobody freaking out that's
496
so funny i was really young oh no so there was
497
that you were only like a year old when
498
that movie came out oh
499
so you don't remember yours the first i don't remember seeing it
500

501
that it was pocahontas okay not not too memorable i think
502
it's just really little i don't toy story maybe um do
503
you remember your first album this one is weird first album
504
or song you bought and i'm trying to remember
505

507
if they were really popular oh do you remember
508
that yes i do i didn't i did something bad oh lime wire no no
509

518

525

526
so i had a boom box in my room
527
and i was gifted i don't even know it was like a mix of songs
528
uh from my godmother
529
