Finals Day two!

So after completing the written portion of the final and our knife cuts, we were given the weeks menu and time for prep for today. tonight i have to make the following
-Blanched broccoli
-Braised Endives
-Glazed carrots (oblique cut)
- Bechemel sauce
- rice pilaf
-Pommes Duchess (basically mashed potatoes piped into little roses and baked, gorgeous but honestly taste kinda strange)

fairly simple and easy, but then again,i have no clue how much time they will give us to present all these. tomorrow is really tough, i have the following:
-pasta carbonara (i need to make the pasta too)
-cream of tomato soup
-French Onion soup
-Chicken Consomme
-Rissoto Quatre Fromagio (three cheese risotto)

those all take a lot of time and can be messed up if neglected. we'll see, i am so nervous....
