mmmm we had a dg (+ elise) first night of hanukkah dinner. highlights:
1. i made my grandma's potato latkes... and they actually turned out really well!
2. homemade apple sauce
3. homemade matzah ball soup
4. we played dreidle
5. kelly gold's hair caught on fire (it was just singed, and therefore funny rather than scary)
6. spending almost 2 hours in the kitchen with my friends and having an amazing meal to show for it
we are definitely gonna make this a monthly thing. although not latkes every time. i already showered, and i still smell like oil and grease. i was really proud that a bunch of "sorority girls" manages to make this awesome meal completely from scratch :)
eleanore is sitting next to me and eating yogurt loudly. how do you eat yogurt loudly? i'm not sure. but she has managed it.
classes are almost over, thank goodness. i am so ready for a break from this place. i love the people (well, most of them...) so much, but i need to get away from all the politics for a while.
opera scenes is tomorrow. ours is pretty cool. elise, alia, jamie, and i are all dead mythological characters who died because of love. and robin is cupid and we are trying to kill her. i get to threaten her with a lighter. good times are had by all :p
wow. i don't update often, but when i do, watch out!
