I thought about including data bags but haven't thought of a good way to represent the concept. I'll probably add them at some point soon. Thanks for your comment, Patrick!

I'm working with Chef, and my work has been somewhat of a black box to many at my organization. A coworker found your diagram and passed it around, and I KNOW everyone will have a better understanding of what I'm working on once they see it :) Any thoughts on how data bags might be best described? Seems it's the only high-level thing your missed (although they're nebulous, so they may be tough to pin down). They're essentially where you want to keep all the variable info that you want others to be able to easily manipulate. Conversely, cookbooks/recipes/roles should be pretty static once your infra is stably up and running :) This is awesome Kate!

This has a big convenience payoff because we hand our daughter off every other day on average. That question, of what if one of us wants to move out of town/state, was one of the hardest questions we had when drawing up our parenting plan. We ended up just putting guidelines to ourselves on how to decide, rather than any actual rules/agreements. It's a VERY hard question. I'm sorry you have to deal with it.

What we did was wrong, there is no doubt about that. I take full responsibility for my actions and deserved to be punished. I received eight years, and served six, then made parole to serve the remaining two. I never touched the man nor could he pick me out of a line-up. If I could change that day I would. I wish I could change the past but I can not. I watched a friend get killed that day. She was killed, there is no other word for what happened, for Jessica was unarmed with her hands up saying," your not going to shoot anyone right, your not going to shoot anyone right." Well those were her last words. I wish I could take that day back with all my heart. I will carry it with me forever. I just wanted to to say thank you for being unbiased in your article .
