Desserts

Something I've realized today...
If you try to have anything resembling a life after a class that goes from 10:15a-4:30p, you will get no work done. :|
Not that I'm behind or anything. Really, I just would have hoped to get more... ahead. :P

Today... there was a REALLY long lecture. Seriously. Really long. Then we made lemon meringue tarts, and that was fun. There is a new girl in my class, because she had a baby two years ago during her third term in culinary, and I got to work with her. She's pretty cool, so it was all good. Messed up a few things, but hey... first week. :D Normally I prepare at least the night before by typing recipes in the order I want them done, printing those out, and making sure everything is just right and blah blah blah, but I wasn't able to do that this time around. Next week should go smoother.

Excited for this class because there is an emphasis on plating things, which I love! I'm pretty decent at it so far, and I'm happy to get more practice and become better at it. I think if I could get a job just plating desserts, I would. :D

Wont have anything to say tomorrow (most likely) because tomorrow is A La Carte service and there's no one to serve for the first week at least. Just going to have a lecture, and hopefully that'll only take a few hours and I'll have mucho time to do homework and read ahead some. :)
