Two-Week Recap

Who knew? When you take 21 hours at culinary school... time to blog is pretty scarce. Heck - time to poop is pretty scarce. But, so you don't feel left out of my high-paced, food-driven life, here is what you've missed:

1. Garde Manger (the art of the cold kitchen): We carved veggies. Below is a pictures of me and my apple bird. I know... precious.


Here he is!



2. European Cakes & Tortes: As it turns out, I like everything European except for their tortes. Well, so far. We've made sponge cake (the picture below is of Megan and I with our lovely little sponge cakes... we were proud), Blitz tortes, and another torte that I can't remember.

3. Artisan Breads: I am loving this class. Bread is... well... the staff of my life. :) Below are the baguettes we made. YUM.



This is some yummy stuffed Challah bread. Again with the YUM.



And here is my favorite... Pirate Bread! Arghhhh...YUM.


A successful and stressful first two weeks. Whew!
