happy thanksgiving

not a whole lot exciting for this blog
just an update of my recent labs

on tuesday we had another soup lab
this time we made specialty soups so;
shrimp bisque, french onion,
vichyssoise, clam chowder
and hot & sour thai chicken
all of these actually turned out very well!
chef thought the thai one was a little salty
and shelly thought the french onion was salty
but overall we got 88% which we are very pleased with!

tonight was our baking lab
it was not a stressful class
with only 3 recipes to complete
there was scones aka tea biscuits
muffins and apple fritters
steve and i spiced up our muffins a bit
by adding some rum and raisins
we thought everything turned out well
but chef said they were slightly overcooked
and not as soft as they could have been
we still received 79% which is decent
but not what we were hoping for this time

tomorrow is 3hr theory which i'm not looking forward to
but then i get to head home and see my family!
and eat home cooked food that i will looove!
happy thanksgiving friends :)
