^^ditto on that. 8 assignments in a span of 5 days. 5 papers, 2 exams and a portfolio.
Come Friday, I think I'm going to have a beer for every page I have to write this week. That'll be about 50 beers. I guess if these assignments don't kill me my celebratory debauchery will.
I'm in the same boat as you two as well. Loads of work to do as crunch time approaches.
I'm tempted to just do a half-assed job this week, though, as I have other stuff on my mind. For one, my brother is coming home from a year-long stint teaching English in South Korea (though he'll probably renew his contract since the job market is so crappy right now). Also, my dad turns 60 on Friday, and I've got to go buy his present and help cook and set up for the big bash we're throwing him on Saturday.
I searched for a recipe thread in the Other Tent but couldn't find one. So I'll post here and see if anyone has anything good to share!
I'm going to a holiday gathering and am supposed to bring a snacky-type dish. I want to do a dip of some sort but I don't have any dip recipes (other than the normal Rotel cheese dip and veggie dip). Does anyone have a dip recipe that they love to make?? I would really appreciate it! Preferably no seafood dips.
Spicy Salsa and cream cheese mixed in a food processor. Serve with Tortilla chips. It is great the spicyness of the salsa is offset by the cream cheese, and it takes all of 10 minutes to make, just keep adding salsa until you get the flavor/consistency you want.
Spinach dip 1 pkg frozen chopped spinached, thawed and drained 1 pkg Knorr veggie soup mix 1 small can water chestnuts, chopped 1 1/2 cups sour cream 1 cup mayo
Mix everything together. I usually do the night before so the flavors mix up. I hollow out a loaf of hawaiian bread and use the bread as a bowl. Cut up the remaining bread to dip, plus lay out crackers and veggies. Yummy.
Sausage dip 1 pkg breakfast sausage (mild or spicy) 1 block pepper jack cheese (shredded) 1 block monterey jack cheese (shredded) 2 cans Rotel tomatoes
Brown sausage. Place sausage in crock pot with remaining ingredients, warm to let cheese melt. Keep crock pot on warm so the cheese will stay melted. Serve with tortilla chips.
2 packages FF cream cheese 2 cans baby shrimp (drained with juice reserved) chopped green onion lemon juice
put the cream cheese and ship in food processer with chopped green onion and about 1 TBS of lemon juice - blend - adding reserved juice as needed to make it into a dip consistancy
2 oz cream cheese (softened) 4 tsp diced yellow onion 1 Tbsp butter (softened) 4 tsp finely diced green pepper 1/4 c. sour cream 1/4 tsp season salt 1/8 tsp paprika 1 Tbsp mayonnaise 1/4 c. shredded mozzarella cheese 1 (6 oz) can crab meat (drained) fresh diced green onion (garnish) fresh chopped parsley (garnish)
Mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and butter until smooth. Blend in season salt and paprika. Stir in yellow onions, crab meat, green pepper and mozzarella cheese. Place in a lightly greased small shallow baking dish and place in a preheated oven at 350 degrees until mixture bubbles, about 10 to 14 minutes. Serve dip with unsalted or very lightly salted corn chips. Serves 2 to 3.

My boss suggested that we shift to a 4 day work week and alternate a schedule where every other weekend was a four day off. I think I could handle that schedule.
Going to a funeral in Denver tomorrow. Not happy about attending a second funeral for the children of friends. Earlier this year was for a 30 year old, tomorrow is for a 24 year old. I dont not like these funeral things. We are not supposed to outlive our children.
Todd - I know what you mean - in July - on of my 15 year olds friends died - the funeral and all was really really rough - on the kids and on the parents.
I'm supposed to be studying, but I'm getting absolutely nothing done. Blah.
You and I are from the same city and there is a lovely place close to Birmingham called Lake Purdy Google it if you’re not familiar with it The sunset over the mountains is breathtaking
If truly you’re getting absolutely nothing done
Don’t be static
Take a couple of hours to go there and watch a sun set over the mountains
Take a chair and dress warmly Go to the boat rental area and move just a little east of the docks Look straight out as the sun sets over the mountains Clear your head
Nothing will get done with this exercise so be on you way to wherever you feel necessary
