another day another THING - this one 7

It is a good day - so far... I am stupidstitious er I mean superstitious so I have to say so far or you KNOW what could happen. ANYwho - so it was a good day in class. I had 3 guests speakers/demos. We started with a discussion and demo of Ice cream and sorbet making, then moved on to basic knife skills and ended with 2 hours of the whole molecular gastronomy thing. This is an advanced pastry class so the really don't know how to use a knife, etc. We will see if the students thought it was worth it - I asked for honest feedback..

THING 7 - this is all about how we can all edit and look at a document without attaching it. I am using Google docs - ok so I am using google apps in all of my things - it is just easier - since I already have the whole gmail thing - and I like that. I started a file and am going to try it out with my class. I am asking them to go online and add comments about production. We will see how it works.

Just one more thing - I have enjoyed facebook since I joined - and now am a FARM TOWN fan - it appeals on all levels to me. It is a contest of sorts - things you need to do and collect and well ok I am a dorky geek - I admit it... happy????
