Today was a great day! Going back to school was not something I was looking forward to but, it was actually a good time. The day started with the Culinary Arts class I attend at the local tech and career center. We are getting ready for the Pro Start competition. There are five of us going down to Albany to compete in 20 days! Its scary to think that it is so soon! We got the hotel arrangements set and are ordering new uniforms!
Then, as a class we were talking about Leavening agents in baking, which I know a lot about and just read about recently! I was so excited to talk about it. I said that there are three types of leavening agents: chemical, physical and organic. Chemical ones include baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) which get mixed with an acid to produce carbon dioxide. Baking powder which is baking soda already mixed with an acid so it needs water/heat for leavening to occur. Yeast is the organic one which causes fermentation (production of carbon dioxide gas an alcohol) Then there is Physical ones including air and steam. They thought I was reading it off my hand, it was so funny.
When I got back to school I had English and we got new grades...woot woot 96.2 hahaha
Then had gym which is always fun and economics. So, it was a pretty easy/fun day.
I am about to do a tempo run and I'll post the exact workout when I get back (from down on my treadmill haha)
