Pumpkin and Spice

As a pastry-chef-in-training, I love to eat, entertain and create. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen, and I love sharing new things I find, try and bake. This blog chronicles the adventures I have with food- at home,at school, on vacation and in my career. I’m especially excited to share my adventures this coming fall, as I will be starting a six-month externship as a baker at a luxury ski resort in Utah.

Random Updates

Posted by pumpkin in Utahpastry school

I realized I have some random little tidbits  that I keep forgetting to tack onto other blog posts.

I'm very excited to tell you that I have finished up my externsHappy baker!hip hours (as far as the school is concerned), all my paperwork is turned in, and I am officially graduated (and with a 4.0 at that!) The ceremony is in June- since it's a rolling admission schedule, they do two graduation ceremonies per year. I doubt I'm going to go... I'll probably just pick up my diploma and accessories (we get a new chef's coat, a tall chef's hat, and a Le Cordon Bleu medal upon graduation) at the school and forgo the ceremony.

So, even though I've finished school, I'm still here until the end of the ski season, which is in April. I'll be leaving Utah bright and early the morning of Monday, April 6th. I'll be walking through the arrivals gate of Orlando International just in time for Kyle to take me out to dinner. Lucky guy!

Also, my "Recipes" tab is now completely updated! You can easily search and print any recipe that I've ever posted- handy.

Oh, and I want to thank you all for being patient with my sporadic posting- the internet connection here at my studio (it sounds classier to call it a "studio" than "dorm room") is sometimes a bit unreliable, slow or non-existant. Thanks for bearing with me, and thanks for all your encouragement!

If you are willing to buy real estate, you will have to receive the loan. Moreover, my sister all the time utilizes a college loan, which is the most firm.
