First Day as an Intern

Well I survived my first day as an intern (I'm not calling myself an extern, it's dumb) at Sarah's. I frosted cupcakes and piped little chocolate filigrees to top the cupcakes with and made lots of coffee. It was fun and I adore working with their chocolate tempering machine, it will completely spoil me by the end of my internship.

It turns out I didn't need to get up at 4:30 am to get there in time, I was very early. Live and learn. Tomorrow I get to sleep in until 5:30 am. Woohoo!

Tonight my boyfriend and I are going to the Cubs game, they play the Nationals who have a worse record than they do and Zambrano is pitching, so I have hope.

Hopefully, I'll get a little knitting in before bed tonight.

In the meantime, here are some pictures of stuff I did at school.

Mini-Apple Tart in Puff with Warm Cranberry Compote and Sugar Boink

Tempered Chocolate Box with Confectionery

Pulled Sugar Basket with Blown Sugar Fruits

Just a sampling, I need to get my artsy creative sister to take pictures for me, because I kind of suck at it.

Go Cubs!
