On Wednesday, we made ice cream. Vanilla and Caramel. Making ice cream is very easy if you have the machine for it, but it takes quite a while and is somewhat boring. xD Tasted very good though, and it's cool to be able to adjust the ice cream flavor to exactly your own liking. ^_^ We did a tasting in class of four different brands of vanilla, and you can definitely feel the waxy texture in ice creams that use way too many preservatives. I can't remember which, but there was one brand that had a horrible chemical taste to it after eating the other ice creams. That comes from way too much cheap artificial vanilla, and I don't think the skim milk helped it any. =/ Also, that kind of vanilla will turn it yellow. :D
Yesterday was service day, and I was on chicken... again... except Salmon only had one person due to an absence or two, so I did prep for chicken and then went to Salmon station. So, in a way it was my second time on chicken and my third time on salmon, all in one day. -.-''' The person on Salmon really wanted to take charge because I guess she has been partnered with some huge do-it-alls before. Fine with me. :P I floated between helping her and Salad station plate and carry over their dishes to the table. So, not too stressful. I'm irritated that I keep getting put on stations that I've done before. Next service I am scheduled to do the steak station AGAIN, so I emailed saying that I'd REALLY like some NON-ENTREE EXPERIENCE GRRRBLARGGGHHH!!! I want to do a starter course, or maybe desserts for a change. Guess he really does not keep track of who has been where because I've heard some complaints from others about repeating as well. *sigh* If we had just started this term with a good, simple rotation system, this wouldn't have been an issue. Well, we don't have class on Thursday next week so I am thankful for the break. :)
