Two loaves and an MA Residence

Last night was a blast!

These are my proud creations! The first time I tried making bread completely on my own, and it was a success! It wasn't the best Seeded French Bread, but it wasn't rock hard either, and friends seemed to enjoy the two I brought to our YA event.

Cayla, Alyssa and Suzanne are seen savouring Tyler's Chicken and Chick Pea Soup and their Baked Squash and Apples. Emily served us scrumptious salad with apples, raisins and walnuts and Caili and Ilia came later with Cornbread muffins. We finished off the table with Cayla's delicious Pear Custard Bars! Yum!The company, needless to say, was equally enjoyable! Somehow Mennonites just love getting together to share our food... :9 (*licks lips at the memory*)

Well, that's all for now folks! Till next time, keep on cookin'!

Missed you, Dora!

Procrastimania

So these past few days have been ram-packed with procrastination. I can't help myself. Even now, I'm trying to finish a paper that was due two days ago. It's just not coming. Instead I'm blogging. My mom doesn't know why people read these things. I think my blog is a good example of "I have no idea. It's full of nothing!" :)

In any case, I've been thinking a lot lately about My Future and what it holds for me. Do I go to Bangladesh with SALT. Do I stay in Montréal and work in a community organisation working at inter-faith dialogue? Do I get a regular Joe Job that may pay more? Both? Do I do service in some other part of Québec or Canada? The options are never ending, and all going through my mind when I should be focusing on the Present... the paper. I should really get back to that.

Wish me luck (with everything, but particularly the paper!)

Effusion Eruption!

I had a blast last night at the Effusion concert! All a capella, all of the time. They were kickin' it so hard; it was awesome! The voices were so full and the beat-boxing so great it was almost as if they had a full band playing! Their guests, the Dartmouth Aires, were also very good. They had a whole choreography to their songs, among them "Under Pressure" by Queen, "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley, Stevie Wonder. It was really fun to watch and listen to. It was truly the best money I had spent in a really long time! I don't have any pictures, but I'll try posting some soon if I find any.

Booyah! I'm out.

Good Morning Bloggers!

I am finally one of you! I don't know how much use you'll all get out of this as my life, as I know it, is pretty normal and not too interesting. But I'll try to spice things up a little in my narrative.

There isn't much to say in this first post, as I haven't yet gone to the concert I'm going to this evening; I just wanted to say "Howdy! I'm finally at the ranch with y'all. I hope this here Internet will get as rowdy as a bull in a cockfight, y'all! Yee haw!"
