May 17th

Today I started at a new dining hall called Oxford. Here I met the director Mike U which I would be working with me for the next three days. Mike gave me the option of cooking that day which I gladly accepted because I hadn't done any since I moved here and I had been missing it. I worked on the Vegan entree which was a grilled portabello mushroom with an anaheim pepper salsa on top. I think it turned out pretty good but I didn't try it, I am not sure why. I learned that it is really hard to make a portabello mushroom look good, no matter how you cook it, so its important to make it look nice with other vegetables and garnish.

Today I also learned that safety shoes are required for a reason because I fell completely on my face while rounding a corner. Miraculously I didn't get hurt, just felt really stupid.
