1 Week to go!! :-(

Last Thursday I went on two mock health inspection with Beth, she showed me what she looks for and explained how everything is scored. Then on Friday we toured Zaxby's a chicken chain down here and it was actually very interesting, we got to see their quality assurance standards for the chicken they purchase and sample some items. Saturday morning Liza and I went Kayaking on the Broad river with a friend it was so much fun and very beautiful, we kayaked about 6 miles and it took us 3 hours I really enjoyed myself. On Sunday she and I drove down to Atlanta and went to an Atlanta Braves game, even though they lost horribly to the Washington Nationals I still enjoyed the experience this was my first baseball game!!
This past Monday and Tuesday I spent more time shadowing managers for a day but instead of in the dining halls they were the managers of the retail restaurants on campus so it was nice to compare and contrast the two. Today I worked with Pat the dietary specialist on campus and helped pick out the menu for a new restaurant they will have on campus soon, and go with her as she talked with a sales men and sampled new product. I enjoyed watching how they market their products to her and taste testing them as well; they were selling sausage links, sausage patties, Canadian bacon and more all made out of turkey many of these products were very good. To finish off my day I spent some time with Catherine the dietitian on campus and she went over some of the things that she talks about in her nutrition class that she teaches on campus, its offered for free to any student on the meal plan. The rest of this week will be office hours and prep time to work on our projects I can't believe next Wednesday is my last day!!!
I'm really excited because I will be going paint ball shooting on Saturday!!
