first day of class...

...went well.  Except for the hour long video we had to watch that was filmed sometime before I was born.  Zzzzzz.  It extolled the virtues of margarine as a replacement for butter.  *shudder*  Fake food: just say no.  The class was Nutrition, by the way.  Tomorrow is International Cuisine and Stocks and Sauces, and more careful questioning of instructors revealed that TDC is not one of the "staff" that still shows up on my schedule when I look it up online. 

I just finished Red Seas Under Red Skies and Scott Lynch: You, sir, are a bastard.
