Mastering the Art of [Dorm] Cooking- Bon Apetit, Y’all!

January 24, 2013 Student Life No Comments

Sophomore Lee-Ann Plott

Now, ladies and gentleman, is the time to start an experiment. Far be it from me to suggest that the nutritional needs and/or wants of ours aren’t met here on campus, but if a little doubt lingers in your mind, perhaps it is time to supplement with a little bit of dorm cooking. This series, Mastering the Art of [Dorm] Cooking, will be a collaboration between you guys, the readers, and me. Think of it as a “Dear Abbie” column, at least, so far as food preparation is concerned. The vision is to figure out cost effective, easy ways to produce quality food that can be created either within the individual dorm rooms or in one of the several kitchens made available to us on campus. We would love to work with you all and learn the tricks of the trade that you have, no doubt, picked up while on campus. Professors, this means you guys too. If you would like to share some of your favorite recipes and work with the Blue Stocking staff do not shy away, but rather, contact us. If anyone, professors or students,  have any recipes you would enjoy sharing, please share your comments at the bottom and we will take a look at it!

1. It’s late. You’re hungry: Waffle House or McDonalds.

Definitely Waffle House. If any one chooses McDonald’s over Waffle House they don’t know how to live with them selves. Waffle House is way classier.

2. If you were a Disney princess, who would you be?

If I were a Disney Princess I would be Ariel mainly because she gets to be in the ocean 24/7, and I love water. I would never however, give up my voice for a guy. Too overrated.

What is Dr. Lilly Really Up To?

November 15, 2012 Comedy, Student Life 1 Comment

Very few details have surfaced regarding Presbyterian’s new president, Dr. Claude Lilly. On top of this, the chief has rarely taken the time to present himself on campus, further entwining himself in a veil of mystery. While some may try to explain this with the “he is too busy to stroll the campus daily” excuse, I have come to another conclusion that, while seeming a little far-fetched at first, makes sense when paired with the logic I am about to present.

The home of the President, Dr. Claus Lilly

The explanation behind the illusive Dr. Lilly is the fact that he is too busy prepping the sleds, conditioning reindeer, and checking his list twice, to spend time sauntering the streets of PC. Yes, Dr. Claude Lilly is indeed Santa Claus.

1. Do you like chocolate?

If I was stranded on an island with nothing but chocolate, I would be fairly satisfied.

2. What is the bravest thing you have ever done?

One time I left the house without double knotting my shoes… nuff said.

Jacob Rogers: PC’s Barber of Seville

When people think of Europe, pictures of snowy villages and cozy mountain cottages are among the images that come to mind. For Jacob Rogers, however, warm clothing has been absolutely useless in Seville (or as the Spanish say, Sevilla), Spain.

 

Jacob Rogers in Sevilla, Spain

When asked about the most useless thing he packed, he replied “Definitely my hoodie and jeans–it is ridiculously hot here all the time.”  Rather than the suffocating humidity of the South, Seville is just plain hot.
