Internship: End of Week 4

Today was the last day of week 4 of my internship. My feet hurt! The other night my class was cancelled so I got a taste of what my life use to be like before this semester started. I came home, made dinner, and dessert. For dinner I made panko coated chicken parmesan and pasta with my homemade sauce. For dessert I made Boston Cream Pie cupcakes from Martha Stewart. Here are some pictures of my day.

At my internship we were low on buttercream frosting so with guidance from Connie I made a new batch. I think it is 80 lbs total!
This huge mixer is as tall as I am it is very powerful and the first time Connie showed it to me she told me to stand back. It can fling frosting far!

Here is the finished frosting. It is nice having a lot of frosting on hand to go and fill your pastry bag any time.

I don't know why I thought that this was funny. This box was in the cardboard crusher and to me it looked like it was sad with a frightened look!

Here are my cupcakes. I was tired so they don't look that nice but they tasted delicious!

80 lbs of frosting, oh my! That box is too funny... poor little box going into the crusher. The cupcakes look great and I am sure tasted fantastic!
