Friday, December 18th

Have I got pictures for you!!!

So since we finished our finals yesterday, we were ordered to clean the kitchen from top to bottom today. THE WORST. Luckily, one of the other classes that uses our kitchen at a different time did the bulk of the cleaning.

But before cleaning, we started class with a pot luck (hurrah).

Here is what it looked like at first...



And then Erika brought in some super cook Japanese food...



And our table just continued to grow. We had SO much food that we fed all the Chef's on our campus and still had leftovers...




At one point, Monica said, "I bet I could put that whole cupcake in my mouth in one bite."



It turns out that she could. And as you can see from Pharyn in the background - it was brilliant.



So Pharyn had a go, too.



And as a bonus, we got to keep the cupcake topper holiday rings (as well as bracelets that Donna made for all the girls).



The class next door to us was working on their final this week as well. They are doing the second to last module of the program - wedding cake decoration. Te students are required to incorporate hand made edible flowers and I thought some of them were awesome...




How pretty is this flower below!?


Under the doves the cake said, in shaky piping, "till death do us part" which we all found kinda creepy.





I like the concept of this cake.






Look how intricate...



Next module we are learning Bavarian creams and custards!
Until then, have an awesome holiday and a wild New Years!!!!
