DOUBLE A's

Midterm Grades... two A- (minuses). I will find out the third midterm grade tomorrow. These are the grades I have earned in my classes up to this point- the Midpoint of the quarter. I'm happy. I'd LOVE to get three A's this quarter. It would put my "B" from last quarter to rest.

DESSERT, ANYONE?


Today in Pastry Class we made Bavarian Cream, Chocolate Mousse and Raspberry Mousse. We also made a savory, spinach souffle that was absolutely amazing. I'm not big on the sweets we make, but I am a BIG fan of whipped cream. And so you can only imagine how good these Mousse Delicacies were. Half a cup and I was done. Followed up by Spinach Soufflee for lunch. Yum.

Food Truck

Some days the idea of investing in a single location restaurant scares the hummus out of me. So I am considering switching gears just a bit to a Food Truck. Yes, a Food Truck. There are plenty of slang and derogatory names for these, but so what. Atlanta is not a place for these just yet, or at least it has not yet been accepted. Maybe by the time I'm ready to jump into an investment (or invest with someone else's money), Atlanta may be ready. BE READY. HERE I COME!
