FUN FUN FUN day! I had class at 8:30. Rodolfo woke up and told me he wasn't going to go to class today, so he slept in while i went ;) So at 8:30 I had a CP. We made the Brill with veggies and fennel. It was a pretty easy and there was a TON of brunoise...which i really like to do i realized. As far as plating, the plating was simple...but when I was thinking of what to do the night before and i decided to add the pepper batons and zuchinni diamonds. Chef said my plating was very beautiful. Same chef as the day before and he once again said my food was excellent. He said my fish was cooked perfectly, my sauce was good, my fennel was good and the one thing is that my veggies could have cooked a second longer. But I was glad my fennel was cooked for long enough because that's the tough one! So overall i did a good job!

During break I sat and talked with some people in the admin dept about the internships. That took a while :) But it's all settled now. More to come! At 12:30 we had a CD. We learned eggs stuffed with truffle with a port sauce, a lamb roll with veggies (turned ones...poop!), and lemon grass cream with strawberry jelly. Nothing that was outstanding. Could have been the chef...could have been the food. Not sure today. After class I went to the gym with Manuel. I met his trainer. Supposedly during his training session he asked about me...so i may have to have a session with him :) After that I came home and Rodolfo and I got dressed for the prom...er...our class dinner at Ledoyen. (you'll see our prom picture later!) We left at 7 and met up with Kaitlin at the Metro. We got to the dinner at 7:30 on the dot. Dinner started late as usual. Food was pretty good. I mean it is a 3 star restaurant. Right before we left, one of my buttons popped off so i sewed it on quickly. During dinner one of my buttons popped off...luckily they had thread and a needle. Sheesh...are my boobs THAT big?!?! DONT answer that :) So, i left dinner at 11:45 and I went home because I had to be up SUPER early the next morning but everyone else went out to the club. I had a REALLY great nite though. I sat at a GREAT table where I talked to a bunch of people i don't normally talk to and it was SOOO nice! I went to bed around 12:30. Enjoy the pictures....I didn't take them...I gave someone else my camera...so ooops!!
