Well...I don't think I am a very good blogger and yet I am still going to try. I am now done with Meat Fab luckily and it got slightly more enjoyable once I was able to do some cooking and I didn't have to spend every second with raw meat. I got an A...barely but an A nevertheless and am very hapy to be done with that class.
I have also completed Advanced Showpieces and Pastries. The class was fantastic! I learned so many cool and new things. I made cakes of all shapes and sizes, chocolate truffles and characters and pulled and blown sugar to name a few things. The class was amazing. I could have easily stayed in it for another three if not more weeks. It was amazing. I got another easy A in that class and felt very successful!
I am now in Restaurant Management, Wine Spirits and Nutrition. Restaurant Management is ok but extremely informative. Nutrition is fun and I am learning a lot. I think we all need to cut some Sodium out of our diets as well as us young folks need to take calcium! I think I also like nutrition from my background in healthcare which makes things easy for me to understand and relate to. I am really enjoying the class and I am working hard to improve my eating habits! More calcium and less sodium are in store for me! Wine Spirits is awful. As I am LDS and don't drink it is hard to sit in a class and learn about alcohol for hours. I don't understand anything while my class understands and I get angry looks if I ask stupid questions but my questions aren't stupid to me...I just don't get it! I also am sick of the tastings....I just sit and watch every other student in my class drink...at least they don't get drunk or even close to tipsy but it is just hard to sit and do nothing while there is so many more important things I could do with my time.
I am on the count down to being done with the in-house portion of school though. I have just under 8 weeks left and then I am off to an internship in an undisclosed location (in other words, I don't know yet!) School is a blast and I am loving what I am learning! Food is constantly on my mind and I don't mind!
As a PS the picture above is a picture of my blown sugar swans.
