I'm a Sophomore

What I've Been Doing

I've got all A's last quarter, rocking a 4.0 here in Chicago. So I've been studying the Basics of Baking and the Art of Garde. I love this quarter and this is only week two. I've been cooking a lot around the dorm, making pasta and tuna dishes. I've been planning what my group's cocktail party menu for our practical in Garde, it is going to be bad ass! I can't wait to do this practical. So awesome! We are going to ace this one. I went to the Celtic fest the other day and got a foam lobster...that's right a lobster. I've trying to figure out a name for the little guy, but have had no luck.

What I've Been Reading

I've started reading The Escoffier Cook Book. Escoffier was a kitchen saint! He is amazing and the way he wrote this cookbook is amazing. It sounds like I'm  listening to an old wise man passing on his endless wisdom with me. Crazy I know, but I am somewhat crazy so it all works. I've also gotten to Through The Looking Glass in the Alice in Wonderland series, I'm very proud of reading these two books because they are classics. Thirteen Little Blue Envelopes is on my re-read books list. I need to have a get away that gives me a happy European trip book. I need help figuring out what other books to read. Any ideas?
