After nearly 2 weeks of leisure (read: LOTS of eating and drinking). I’ve been thrown back right back into the swing of things and feel a little like one of those fat guys who would willingly take a cannon ball into the stomach.

Fall quarter started this week. It is going to be intense.

I am hoping I’ll make it through 3 lab classes (15 hours/week) on top of my full time job and still have some energy to cook at home, and maybe get out of the house once in a while.  The good news is we’re creating a portfolio for our Baking/Pastry class, so that will help me keep things posted here.   I’ll get to some tales and more pictures of our travels through the Pacific Northwest and California soon.
