Just not much to write about this past week in school. Life has been very hectic, so that has taken most of my focus away. Anyway, there was nothing to take pictures of unless I wanted to whip my camera out during service. (which, by the way, I don't.)

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. :)
