New Module:

Baking is finally over. Our class and I did very well. We covered hopefully most of the basics. Our final day we made eclairs and strawberry and chocolate chiffon pies. They turned out pretty well.

I thought baking was kinda cool, I might even get a Kitchen-Aid mixer. The thing I hate about baking is that everything is HIGH CARB and HIGH SUGAR. I think I gained 5-6 lbs during the five weeks of class. If I did not have a sweet tooth, being pastry chef would be kinda cool.

While I was at the restaurant I was talking with the Sous and asked him for evaluation. He basically said I was doing well, except for my smack talking ability?!? I was like what?!?

I have plenty of smack talking ability as illustrated by my nickname RTS. "Rander Talking Shit" Since I am the lowest on the totem, I was just doing as I told no questions asked. I guess now I will have to shift it into first to gain a little more respect.

Now that we have our first skills class, the chef said. "Good, now you can do all the family meals" I was like ?!?!?!? Well at least I will get some practice cooking what I learn in school.
