And so you have now seen a pictorial representation of how I've spent the past 16 Tuesdays from 3pm to 9:10pm. This class has been great and very dedicated to their learning, even throughout hardships and unexpected circumstances that always come with culinary school. Many did back-to-back classes, meaning they had two 6.5 hour classes with very little break! Talk about exhaustion at the end of the day? Yes.Stay tuned for more re-caps as classes conclude for the semester!
