Internship 2 :)

Oh my gosh! My Internship was so much fun! First I woke up at 5:30 ( I wasn't so happy!) ate a bagel ( there is a funny story to that!) and then we took the blue line "L". When we got there my Aunt showed me around ( the views were spectacular!) and then I met a lady and she asked me if I wanted a bagel I said, " I had a bagel at my aunts house. Thanks though!" and then she said,
"You aren't supposed to eat a bagel at your aunts house. You are supposed to eat one here!" ( that is not the funny part!) and then I met Constantino ( one of the sous Chefs) and he showed me around. He asked me If I wanted a bagel and I said, " Thanks but I had one at my aunts house." and of course he said, " You are not supposed to eat one at you aunts house. You are supposed to eat one here!" ( whoa - deja vous!, well I think that is who you are supposed to spell it! And that was the funny part.) I met everybody and then he showed me around. I went into the prep room and my first job was to put 50 loaves of bread on pans and then put them on racks for the bread to cook. Then I put 120 pieces of goat cheese on two pans and put them in the freezer. Then I helped put sushi on plates and decorated the plates like they said to do. After that I helped bread the catfish and after that I cut of the ends of mini cucumbers and mini squash, 200 vegetables later! ( my knife skills are ok, after a while I got used to it!) Then I got to pull the stems off the spinach. And then Chef told me stuff about menus and how to price them and how to buy things and that kinda stuff. And then he wanted me in the kitchen and he wanted me to feel how hot it actually is. I got to go on the line and I got to put plates in the oven to warm them up. And that was my morning! I had so much fun!
