Harlingen Raspa Stand

When i go down to Harlingen, I always have to get a picadilly! It is a raspa (snowcone) with pickles, koolaid powder, chili lucas powder, and i think that might be it. I also love mexican corn. It has corn, mayonaise, chili lucas powder, and queso blanco! Good thing I have tasted anything this good in San Antonio, otherwise I would gain so much weight!

Applied Food Science Lab

In my Dietetics program, we have lab once a week. And its not a boring chemistry or biology lab, like I have had in the past. It is a lab dedicated to cooking and experimenting with different types of cooking techniques. The following pictures are foods that we cooked in one lab time. Of course, we split the work in between different teams to yield more food to eat! Yummmm. The best thing about this is that I get to improve my skills in the kitchen AND eat free food! YESS! :)

In addition to these, the lab also experimented with other food products. We do so much in so little time. It is great learning experience.
