Park Slope

As promised-pictures of my new place (or room rather). So far, I absolutely love living here. Only downside? No longer am I conveniently located next to an express train (though, it actually takes me less time to get to class now). And the plethora of 24 hour (or late-hour) grocery stores are less available. But, overall I much, much, much prefer this new location.

The exam today was...strange. Normally, the written part is ridiculously easy, while the practical is very hard. In this case the opposite was true. Mostly, its just an adjustment to our new chef, and ironically, the sort of questions he asks on exams are what I would have anticipated initially, but have become slightly complacent as result of the ease of level 1. The practical aspect was very easy, slow going (as bread tends to be). We were tested on croissants (plain and chocolate), dinner rolls, and muffins of our choosing. Pretty basic, we even had enough time to throw together a pizza for lunch! Overall, great day. NOW, on to Petit Fours!!!
