Announcements
A couple of quick announcements:
First, today is the last day to nominate your favorite food bloggers for this year’s Food Blog Awards over at the Well Fed Network.
Second, the Menu for Hope campaign has raised over $17,000, which is amazing for the first week! You still have until next Friday to bid, and cool prizes are still being announced.
Third, (and I’m sorry this isn’t food related) I just finished my last-ever paper for a graduate course! That’s right, from here on out, the academic work I do is completely up to me (well, except teaching, but I love that part). Scary, but also liberating. To celebrate, David and I have a day of shopping planned (what I’ve wished I was doing for the past two weeks, instead of working on this paper and grading), but when we return, more holiday cooking is in store…Stay tuned!

Cool about the last paper being written. I confess I quit in the middle of my own would-have-been master’s degree. I was already teaching school at the time and it was just too much to keep up with for me, so I do admire people who do it.
Thanks for mentioning our very cool prizes from the central U.S. region. It’s so exciting to watch how fast the total has grown.

Congratulations! I know that I’ll be ready to be done with book work (coming up in May!) and start clinicals. When what you want to do is work with people, burying your head in books is torture - school books that is! I’ll be done with exams in about 2 hours and look forward to running to the Loft and starting on Christmas baking!
Enjoy your celebration.

Congratulations! Kristian and I totally understand celebrating each of the landmarks in the grad school process! Happy shopping and cooking!
