And...

I HAVE A NEW JOB... So I can't announce it on facebook yet just because I need to tell my manager and I don't think it would be fair if I call him on his vacations so Monday it is to tell him. But today I got the call that I will be the Pastry Chef at The Brickyard Harmons. I will get paid three dollars more than what I do now and I am excited but I think my dad is the most excited about this. Anyways I will start probably the first week in October but will be doing some orientation hopefully in the next couple of weeks.

Job Oppertunity...

So a few weeks ago I finally put in my application and resume into the Harmons Grocery Store. Three days later I had a call about a position that was open. I have a interview on Friday and I am a little nervous because I really want this to work out. It is for a pastry chef position which is a new position to the company. I'm not quite sure what will happen but hopefully the interview will go well...

to update this sucker... So life has deffinately stayed busy. I have just been working at the floral shop but hopefully soon taking a job offer that I recieved from Harmons a Grocery store that has a gormet deli and bakery... I have become a advant cycler... Four times a week sometimes only three but I do get up at 5 AM to get to the gym by 5:30 to save me a bike only to bike for an hour and on Wednesday to do another 1/2 hour before my training session. I am planning at some point to get certified so I can teach classes. I did Lisa Patterson's wedding in May. I did the cake and flowers which suprisingly I wasn't stressed but my mother was the whole way to the set up. But here are some pictures of her wedding along with other things I have been doing...

Mega post...

I keep thinking about posting a update but I just never do but I have a couple of hours before my training session so here we go. By the end of 2009 I had finally achieved graduation but along with graduation I had achieved a goal. After moving to Salt Lake I hit a downhill in my life and ended up gaining 40 pounds in the first year. I'm sure school did not help with everything around me. For my birthday I asked for a bodybugg and personal training sessions. Long story short I was able to continue my training sessions with my personal trainer Josh. Life has become a little less stressful but happier. I have lost the 40 pounds but I have lost 6 inches off my chest, waist, and hips (I don't know my past month measurements so this could have changed). At one point I was juggeling work, school and the gym. Now it is so nice to only be juggeling work and the gym and Josh has made the gym a lot easier by making me do my cardio after my sessions three times a week. I have learned how to make pancakes healthy... I know everyone tells me if you make them healthy they won't taste good well I am here to tell you picky me is eating pancakes that are healthy for you... which leads to what I think I want to do. I want to create good tasty food that people who are looking for a more healthy meal plan can eat. Desserts that will curve the sugar cravings but at the same time taste good. Anyways in a nut shell I still want to do cakes but I'm also switching it up. So there is a update in a nutshell...

Busy, Busy, Busy...

Well I am finally done with my internship and have started my last quarter of school. I have two classes that will be challenging. The first on is running the restaurant in the school. As students we are in charge of cooking and serving the meals. We pretty much run it with the help of one of the chefs. My other class is a Capstone class. We make a business plan and present it in the end. It is going to be a lot of work and I really don't know how I am going to have time between work and the gym. I guess I won't have a life for another 11 weeks. Here are some pictures of things I did my last week.

And I also made this one...

This is a white chocolate curl cake. Every curl is made by had out of a mixture of white chocolate and a small amount of gum paste. I was pretty proud of this one. I had help from on of the other girls at Carries but the other day I made curls from milk chocolate for another cake and it took 5 hours straight by myself... very time consuming.
