-give an update about stuff you're working on
-explain how you solved a problem
-tell a cool story

Also include images, sounds or video from your project.

# 2. Respond thoughtfully to another blogger's posts on this site. Post 1 of these response-blogs per week (200 or more words each).

Each of you is expected to contribute to this blog--even if you're working with another senior or with a group.

I'm really looking forward to following your project via your postings! Have fun!

Boxes

Today, the bakery received lots and lots of stock for the store via mail. I remember seeing boxes enter the store continuously until half the store was filled with boxes. My sponsor was busy working on an order, so she had Chloe and I open the boxes, and, surely enough, there were boxes inside those boxes. Using an exacto knife, I began opening the boxes and seeing the mysterious contents. There were pans, icing tips, cupcake trays, decorating gel, decorating icing, and much more! My sponsor was still occupied, so we were put in charge of pricing the items. The cost of all the supplies are listed in a catalog, so all you have to do is find it; sounds simple enough right?—wrong. The catalog is half an inch thick with approximately thirty items listed on each page. After flipping through the catalog and finding the correct cost, we used a pricing gun to apply the labels.

A task that I didn’t mention in my last post was making peanut butter cookies. The store was running out of peanut butter cookies, and we were told to make a batch of cookies by ourselves. I made peanut butter cookies beforehand so it wasn’t too difficult. We did make a little mistake, but we fixed it and the cookies turned out great.
