Its the final countdown..

So, I have highly slacked off on this blogging stuff. I think it is now known that my weakness is journaling. The last several days have gone by really fast, ok, maybe it has been three weeks since the last time I posted. We have been putting some finishing touches on our banquet that will take place on Monday. I got to test make flan! That was my first time ever. Besides the fact that we left it in the refrigerator at a very low temp causing it to freeze, it was very good. We have shadowed and worked with some of the management personell for the retail operations here. We have learned the differences in the dining halls and retail operations and have found out that they are separate identities and require different management skills. Their operations use more marketing since they are targeting students with and without meal plans as well as faculty. We got the opportunity to visit the Zaxbys Corporate office. We learned about their Quality Assurance and then they gave us a tour of a nearby Zaxbys. And of course, we got to eat their for lunch, their treat! This past weekend was a lot of fun. As you can see in the pics, Marcia and I along with a friend went kayaking down the Broad River. So much fun. Sunday we went to the Braves game with some people that we have met from work, which was a lot of fun as well. Right now we are focusing on finishing up our projects and getting this banquet started! Wish us luck!
