WHO: Elijah NeeSmith, 35, Chef at Waseca Montessori School and upright bassist for The Darnell Boys

Flagpole: How did you get into the culinary world?

Elijah NeeSmith: Just by accident. Someone saw me grilling some food at a yard sale and music party, and they asked me if I wanted to come and sub for a couple days at Waseca. I was grilling yellow squash.
