Hey everyone, it's Michelle and Hannah again,
We are so surprised that our internship is already half way done! The time is literally flying by. The past few weeks have been an absolute blast though!

The weekend after our big New York trip we met with Chef Mark K. and he taught us knife skills and a variety of cutting techniques. Chef Mark was really entertaining to work and made us laugh a lot throughout the lesson.

We made apple swans!

We also had a diversity session which was was really interesting and interactive. We then had lunch with HR A. Martell and D. Moore where we learned a lot about their jobs and they were really enjoyable to talk to! After that we went to a resume building workshop with J. Heim. This was really beneficial because there are always changes that can be made on resumes!
We also met with C. Hurley and he taught us about pepsi contracts and different aspects of his job. Later on, we met with Ed Dobo, the safety manager. He was so entertaining to spend a few hours with and he had some crazy stories to tell us!

After that busy week of meetings, we worked at the Bryce Jordan Center Concession stand for high school commencement. We were really busy during that shift selling and making nachos, burgers, hotdogs, etc. so the time was flying by. We had the weekend off which was nice so we could relax and recooperate after our busy week.

Monday was definatly an exciting day because we had the opportunity to tour the warehouse and bakery! We went into the warehouses freezer and it was -2 degrees and absolutely huge! The bakery tour was really exciting because who doesn't love sweets?! At the end of the tour, the bakers had set up a station for us to decorate cupcakes! We were all so excited and ate way too many when we came home.

The next day we went to Belleville, PA which is amish town. All of us bought too many moon pies and whoopie pies which were absolutely amazing. We also attended a livestock auction which we found to be really sad.

So many whoopie pies!

We also were able to meet with the dietitians and hear all about what they do on campus. Their jobs seemed really interesting and everyday is different for them which is nice.
