Comments on: Pastry Techniques Wrap Up http://www.sweetnapa.com/2006/04/09/pastry-techniques-wrap-up.html In LA, but Still Exploring Desserts Tue, 06 Jan 2009 03:45:34 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Nina http://www.sweetnapa.com/2006/04/09/pastry-techniques-wrap-up.html#comment-160 Nina Tue, 11 Apr 2006 06:41:46 +0000 http://www.sweetnapa.com/2006/04/09/pastry-techniques-wrap-up.html#comment-160 Thanks :) Yeah, I try probably 95% of what we make, usually just a few bites (if I don't try something, it's usually b/c it's big and hasn't cooled yet or won't fit on the dessert table and so isn't cut up)... and then after lunch, I load up my dessert plate from the dessert buffet every day, and try as much as I can of what others groups made, too. My first week at school, my stomach hurt so much on the way home, but I've gotten better about portion control--and I try not to think of it as wasteful if I don't eat it all of a dessert, because hopefully, I learned something from it. :) Some people don't try all that much, but I like most flavors, so I'm always game. Recently, eclair day and donut day were generally tough on stomachs... but worth it! :) Thanks :) Yeah, I try probably 95% of what we make, usually just a few bites (if I don’t try something, it’s usually b/c it’s big and hasn’t cooled yet or won’t fit on the dessert table and so isn’t cut up)… and then after lunch, I load up my dessert plate from the dessert buffet every day, and try as much as I can of what others groups made, too.

Do you try everything you make? It certainly seems like a lot of food that needs to be eaten ;) As much as I'd love it, I'm wondering if upset stomachs ever come into play in class!
