| 1 | We started our hospital kitchen excursion by examining the bottle washing machine and also the pot and pan washer. After this we watched the cooks chopping and frying the liver for supper (Um, it sure smelled good). In a large mixer we saw potatoes being mashed in huge quantities. In the vegetable department which we visited next, we were not lucky enough to see the people at work because it was clean up time, but the carrots and celery sure tasted good. | |
| 2 | Next I remember visiting the baby bottle department where all the babies' milk formulas are made for pediatrics. In the ice cube department there were a million ice cubes that had been made (or at least that's how many it seemed to me.) | |
| 3 | The office supply room and the mailing room came next. | |
| 4 | We didn't get to see the butchers at work as they were finished for the day. | |
| 5 | No ice cream was being made when we got to that department, but maybe the next time I visit the kitchen I will get to have a taste. | |
| 6 | The frosting in the bake shop was delicious. I saw the inside of the oven and the doughnut and biscuit cutter. Especially I remember the nice lady who gave me the cherry tart. (Good) | |
| 7 | I saw them preparing the food carts for supper. | |
| 8 | Next we went to the Hamann Pavilion and took the elevator to the floor where the main dining room is located. I saw the steam tables full of food ready for serving. A very nice lady took us into the main dining room office and showed us around. We also went in to the serving kitchen for the dining room. There were a few people eating at the tables. Everyone was so friendly. | |
| 9 | After I had a drink of water and a (smooth) ride between the tables, I decided I was very hungry and we came back to Toomey to have supper. | |
| 10 | I really enjoyed my excursion and I want to thank everyone for being so nice to me. | |
