Good Evening,

Today I was chef and I just want to thank all of you showing up and being prepared. We had a good class and finished every task.

In today’s class we made candied fruit and marshmallows. I think you guys did very well with today’s production. Team A (Jessica, Michelle, and Hannah) you guys had orange marshmallow and candied ginger. Team B (Ashlie, CeiKar, and Eylin) you guys made rose water marshmallow and candied orange rind. Team C ( Jodian, Dao, and Matt) you guys made the peppermint marshmallow and candied grapefruit. Team D ( Shenice, Sarah, and Maria) you guys made the cassis marshmallow and candied pineapple. Considering we had no sink today that did not slow us down. Thank you to my steward Gloria and other students that pitched in and helped run dishes down to room 208 and get them done. You guys rock! Pictures of today’s production will be posted below. Also we will finish our candied fruits next week.
