Menu


For the last couple weeks I have been working a menu that I will present at the end of my Senior Project class, so far I have come up with all the courses that the menu is going to consist of, now all I have to do it is sit down and make it! easier said than done! Not only that I have to make a food cost percentage chart or something that will help the audience further understand the behind the scene of menu making.

blogs!


I haven't blogged much lately and its not that I don't want to, its that I've been so busy between everything from baseball to work that I just haven't found any time to actually sit down and think things through and blog!

LIttle Tuna!

This week Darien and I, went over the menu and finished it up, after that I basically cooked for the remainder of the time, there is no better way of learning then actually getting some hands on work!

senior trip week

All this week our senior's took a trip to Disney World in Orlando, Fl, I chose not to go, but I enjoyed myself. Monday was a regular day for everyone, and Tuesday I attended my sponsor and spend my day cooking, what fun! Wednesday I slept in and took a nice drive around and hung out with some of my friends and spend some quality time enjoying nature. Thursday I just slept all day, lazy I know, but I was in need for some serious sleep, but Friday was just too fun for words. Some of my baseball buddies went on a journey to find this one lake that nobody has ever heard of, but to be honest just the wrong turns and the U-turns was fun, not to mention the random act of stupidity. We finally found this mysterious lake, which was located some where in Winslow township, it was called Picasso Lake. From the looks of it, it use to be some kind of paintball place. What a week!

WEATHER!

Darn weather, because of all the spring showers our baseball schedule as been put on hold, and it as effected me in many levels! Not only do our games get canceled, I have to let my job know that I' m unable to go. And if I miss a lot of days at work I can get fired! I know that my head is suppose to be in the game and nothing else but I cant afford to lose my job over a baseball game, but I don't really care cause I want to make it to the playoffs, and set a new school record in wins.

Countdown!

With the impending senior trip, the end of baseball in two weeks, the prom in three weeks, my senior project presentation in four weeks, and the last day of school in a little over five weeks, time will truly past a lot quicker than I wanted it to. Don't get me wrong I have senioritis as much as the next senior but man, life starts in just a few short weeks! No more mommy and daddy there to hold your hand, it'll be time for the cubs to fend for themselves! To be honest even though high was crap, I will truly miss it, not sp much the building itself but people that made the building what it was. I'm just hoping that in the next fives weeks and I hang out with as many friends as possible!

Anecdote


You know, growing up my parents would tell me that I should do something productive with myself; they would suggest becoming a doctor or lawyer. It wasn’t until just a few years ago, when I found myself home alone and hungry that my friend Will and I started throwing ingredients into a pan and found my passion for the kitchen. I can’t say that the chicken and mashed potatoes were that good then, after my years of practice I know that I can whip up some mean chicken and mashed potatoes. After that, I found that the kitchen and I went hand in hand like peanut butter and jelly.
