The beginning of the internship



I have officially started the internship program and I'm excited for what's in store for us interns in the near future. So far we have to prepare for a level 1 Raw Chef certification class that begins this weekend. The director warned us of what we have to look forward to, which is a hectic week! Directly quoted, she says "if you all can get through the intensity of preparing for this level 1 Chef class, the rest of the internship will be a breeze."
I was fortunate enough to learn how to make a few yummy raw foods, but now i'll get a chance to learn more in depth about "Raw GOURMET" meals, learning how to make pizza, burgers, pancakes, etc.., and the interns even get a chance to perform some of the food demos if we feel comfortable in doing so. I don't know if I, personally, will be performing a food demo this time around, but it's nice to have the option for the future.

Also, I met some of the other interns and I have to admit, I'm appreciating the different personalities, and backgrounds I've been so fortunate to have been introduced to. Each person carrying their own significant and interesting story that brought them to CHI, and each person also carrying a strong quality I see as being very beneficial to the overall success of the center. I mean c'mon, It's not everyday you meet someone who claims to have almost been killed in Peru's deadly jungles, trying to deliver supplies to a dear friend. Yes, they all keep me very entertained, as I hope my stories do for them, which I doubt, since I don't really have much of a story, although some people I know may say otherwise. 

well it's late, and I have to get ready for the Chef class preparation tomorrow morning, so i'll update you with the latest sooner than later.

Until then, have a blessed day!
