Raise the Roof: Finally Graduating From Le Cordon Bleu

Ashli Michelle January 22, 2016 0 Comments
Le Cordon Bleu graduation was January 9th. The entire internet was invited, even though rules specifically stated no more than ten people per graduate. Most of the time it is best to be a rule-follower. Sometimes the best rule-follower in the history of following rules can't do it. Graduates had to arrive earlier than the entire invited internet, as well as each person's family. All parts of my...

Inviting the Internet to Attend My Le Cordon Bleu Graduation

Maybe inviting the entire internet to my Le Cordon Bleu graduation in January is not the right thing to do. There are several problems to consider. Internet people might not enjoy graduations.

This feels like a load of this and that, as well as bull with another word...

Restaurant Rotation Class at Le Cordon Bleu is the Scariest Class at Le Cordon Bleu

Only 8 more days until the very last class at Le Cordon Bleu will end. This class is scary. I'm not talking about basic scary, oh no. This is Freddie Krueger-Exorcist-Shining-Michael Myers scary. Just calm down with me. Students who suck will never make it out of this class. Don't even think about it! The next quest to conquer will be three months of an externship somewhere in Dallas. I was...
