Good job -- developing that resistance early in your profession is critical. Keep up the good work!

Night 2 of the waffle station. And I just found out I have to do a wedding cake on Sunday.
dang, I am surounded by by sugar!!

Some people who work around a certain product daily develop an aversion to it (like people in a chocolate factory, for instance)

I completely understand the temptation as I work in a restaurant and on Sundays we have a HUGE breakfast buffet with pastries and donuts and waffles and everything else that is a huge no-no.

Good job! Great job also recognizing your weaknesses (pasta). Knowing sweets aren't really your thing will help you through the remaining days on the waffle station.

Oh I understand your pain SarahJane...French Toast was one of my favorites too...not just wonderbread dipped in the egg solution but thick slices cut from a full, freshly baked loaf of Sweet French Bread from my stores bakery department. Then load it with margarine and powdered sugar until if formed a glazed on top (thats a lot of sugar, believe me!!).
Great Job avoiding the temptation!!
