A sliver of liver...

...was my dinner tonight.

And I did not like it. Today's lesson was all about organ meat.
Liver, kidneys and the biggest mindfuck of 'em all: Sweetbreads.

Sweetbreads sounds so beautiful doesn't it? Kinda like cornbread.
Unfortunately there's nothing sweet about it. Or bread for that matter.
Sweetbreads are glands that sit left and right of a veal's larynx.
We cooked them up tonight. And it was pretty gross. As were the kidneys. And the liver.

Now I'm done talking about tonight's food. Don't wanna think about it.

The good thing today was Bryce's 21st birthday. A bunch of us introduced the now "legal" Bryce to the art of drinking.
You have to know that the man is from Indiana and so far has had Miller, Miller Light and Budweiser.
That of course is an exaggeration, but it is true that everybody that went out after class (about 12 of us) ended up introducing their favorite drink to birthday boy.
It was tons of fun.
This was the first time for me to have drinks with the gang and I gotta admit I haven't had that much fun in a while.

The whole class is starting to feel like family. I like that a lot.
Level 1 is winding down, and I can't wait to conquer Level two with them...
