A Few Weeks of Fun

I just have to share this picture, it always gives me a good laugh... (Courtesy of Top Chef Season 8 "Night at the Museum")

So it's been a fun few weeks with some silly stuff happening...

First of all some great news. My quantity foods class had an "Iron Chef" Challenge in class, cooking a meal not knowing what ingredients we had. We had to serve an appetizer, entree, two sides and dessert was optional. And my group won!! Hooray!! The winning menu:

Appetizer: Bacon Wrapped Shrimp Kebob
Entree: Chicken Roulade with Spinach, Asparagus and Parmesan Cheese
Sides: Oven Baked Diced Potatoes with Parmesan, and Side Spinach, Pear and Strawberry Salad with homemade Balsamic Vinagrette Dressing.
Dessert: White Cake tppped with Strawberry and Pineapple Infused Whip Cream

On the way to school one day I came across a very mathematical equation to make a baby, I found it quite hilarious:


And of course had to take a picture to share, even though it has no relation to nutrition.

We have been working in the TCU kitchen as part of my class and recently we were working with the receiving department. (Receiving food, putting it away) One of the days while we were working in the coolers (which are super cold btw) we finished putting food away and went to another room to make a shipment order. About 5 minutes later we realized one of our group members was missing. We go back to the cooler and see him banging on the window shouting that he was locked in. Another employee opened the cooler door and pointed to a sign that was posted on the inside part of the cooler door:

We all had a really good laugh for a few minutes after that.

Only 4 more weeks until the end of the semester and it is going by super fast. Next semester I hear is fairly less hectic, so maybe I won't have as many fun stories. :( But I am very much looking forward to a month off for Christmas break. I love the holidays and getting super excited for Christmas approaching.
