5am comes early.

Today was my first day back to school post spring break.
Wake up call!
The 5am kind as well as the "this class is going to be a hell of a lot tougher than the last one" kind.

this little piggy did not make it....

The dishes that we cook will now be spread over two days. A day for prep and a day for cooking.... kind of nice. We will also be expected to not only show up with recipes, but also production schedules and plating diagrams. We will be making full plates rather than single components..... as if I needed to start eating even more. 

(vegas, vegas, vegas. bikini, bikini, bikini....ughhhh)

For tomorrow: beef stew with glazed vegetables and bone in pork chops with braised cabbage and bulgar wheat pilaf.
