Sleep deprived and loving it

Holy cow, I am nearing the end of my first quarter of Culinary School. I totally Aced all of my midterms and got the best compliments from my chef today in class. Needless to say school is going really well. I love what I'm doing.

this week we're doing breakfast! My favorite.
Day 1: poached eggs, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, omelettes, and pancakes
Day 2: Eggs Benedict (my favorite), Waffles, hashbrowns
Day 3: BREAKFAST BUFFET for the whole culinary school. Supposedly this day is the most looked forward to by all culinary students within the building. Maybe because we'll be making enough food for an army! This menu is awesome: Biscuits and sausage gravy, hash browns, eggs benedict, bacon, french toast, cinnamon rolls, smoothies, corned beef hash, Apple cider syrup (for french toast, build your own omelette with ranchero sauce if you want it, made to order eggs and Lyonnnaise potatoes (essentially hash browns with onions)
It's going to be awesome.

Starbucks is good. so glad that I get free coffee, it helps enable me to make it through the sleepiness caused by being enormously busy. I was reminded today that when I'm done with school I'll look back and wonder how I was able to do it... I'm sure that is more true than I realize.

I've been overwhelmed by how blessed I am.
