Things I did this weekend

Basked in the glory of these blossoms that EXPLODED in the sunny, 75 degree weather we've had all weekend

Used the new bag my marmie made me for my birthday

Made friends with this bunny

Had a picnic!

Forgot to bring my camera on a trip to Trillium Dell farm and timberworks, where Food For Thought helped to plant about 4,000 onions. But the rows looked beautiful, and there were some nice dogs

Pumped up my bike tires and re-adjusted my seat

Spent quality time with lots of friends

Hard to focus when it's this beautiful out. Luckily I didn't have much work to do this weekend. I'm a little pink from the sun (even with the sunscreen, my pasty winter skin couldn't handle the sun's glory!), but it was worth it for the hours I spent outside!

Food For Thought boxers!

Before break, I was talking with the foodie club I'm in (Food For Thought) about club apparel. The club wanted to get boxers. We realized that the companies we were considering ordering from were going to be too expensive for us. Then I realized- HEY, I can silkscreen! So we bought boxers cheap and I brought them home with me over break to screen with my pre-existing carrot print.

They turned out pretty well, even though I had to use a system of cardboard and binder clips to stretch out the elastic and keep them from scrunching.

We distributed them at our club meeting tonight, and everyone was super pumped about them. So yay for local food, and yay for local art!

In my life, I love Knox more!

Awesome, awesome weekend.

Friday: lazy all afternoon, then Off-Knox, which is an awesome open mic held off campus. Great poetry, great music, great time. I performed a Damien Rice song with a friend, and my a capella group performer "In My Life" by the Beatles. Lotsa fun!

Saturday: Sleeping in! For the first Saturday of the year, for volleyball season is over! Saw the theater department's production of "Medea", very good!

Sunday: Harvested chard and kale at the community garden with our campus group Food For Thought, and then went to the professor who runs the garden's house to cook it all up for lunch! It was delicious and so much fun and I got to hang out with some pretty fantastic people.

Forgot to bring my camera, though, so no lovely pictures of chard to be had!

Two more weeks of craziness and then HOME for six weeks, in which I will

-be going to the Young Farmers Conference at Stone Barns

-having a lovely thanksgiving with family

-visiting my sister at Olney Friends School in Ohio

-sledding, cutting down trees, and generally having a blast at the Bit of Earth

-AND MUCH MUCH MORE! Stay tuned!
