Today was an okay day because hardly any customers came by and business was running slowly. I did not have a lot of work to do. But I did what I typically do when I arrive at my internship. Today was a day like any ordinary day. I became bored because hardly no one came and I had nothing to do. I am starting to think how some business are getting affected by the economy when hardly any customers come by. I would say that I kind of had a long break and i like that because typically I am always busy. Since there were hardly any customers when I arrived the baker taught my how to create icing that goes on top of the cinnamon rolls. It was funny when i tried to create that icing when I made cinnamon rolls at my house becuase the icing came out watery and nasty. When I learn something new at my internship I try to copy it at home but unfortunately it does not work out as i would like.

Mayra - That's excellent that you are practicing at home - even if it's not working out on your first try. I am wondering if you discuss your at-home cooking experiments with Reuben? I would imagine that if you tell him exactly what went wrong - like it was too watery - he can tell you the remedy. The goal would be for you to understand the function that each ingredient plays in the recipe - the eggs vs. the oil vs. the water vs. the sugar, etc - when considering consistency.
