Day 15 & 15.5: Auction Time

This post is being written on Monday seeing as my weekend was rather busy and I didn't have all of the time in the world. To make this easier to write and read I will just say today meaning Saturday.

So today was the day of the auction. The gift basket was finally ready totally over $200 in resturant donations. The auction itself was put together well and the food was delicious. I decided to help set up and prepare the auction or at least thats whati thought. I showed up on time and everything was set up already. I was then introduced to the owner of The Landing and my job was to help him in any way I could. That meant bringing our silverware and plates as well as the mexican themed food. The food looked delicious. I spent most of my time there talking with the cooks, asking what they were making and how they made it. Food has always been in interest of mine but and I often cook meals for myself, and not just macaroni and hot dogs, so it was interesting to see how they made their food.

Overall the night went very well. I met a lot of people who I am sure could be of value to me in the futrure. Sometimes it's not what you know, it's who you know that matters.
