Day 66 - January 6, 2010

Day 66:

Today was my prep day for meatloaf and scalloped potatoes for lunch tomorrow. Adrienne helped me all day today and it was nice working with her. I needed to get a bechamel going so I started with that. After that was on the stove, we washed and started slicing my potatoes. I also sliced up some onions and set those aside until my bechamel was finished.

I made my meatloaf and ended up with 4 good sized loaves. It looked pretty good, considering I don't eat meat.

After that was finished we started layering up the scalloped potatoes and halfway through I ran out of bechamel! The recipe didn't have me make enough so I had to start again. Because of this, my project ended up taking way longer than it should have. I guess it had it's benefits, I was busy all day long. I hate not having anything to do while I'm at school.

After my second batch of bechamel was finished, we finished up the potoates and cooked them about halfway so they would cook faster the next day.

It was a good day and nice because I was busy all day.
