Culinary Arts Program – Week Four

So, I am a week behind on my posts. I guess you could say I was active, occupied, and tired the past week. I am taking a break from the fast-pace life to catch up on my writing. I have had so many great experiences over the past couple weeks. I already wrote about our…

Yesterday was my 28th birthday. It was a long week, and I was having a rough day. I was exhausted and cut myself in two places at during class. I truly enjoyed the recipes we made for our second fish day, but when we were done, I just wanted to go home and lay down.…
