one calorie, two calorie, red calorie, blue calorie

Back in Sitka I reside. For now. Until January 2nd at some annoying hour of the day. Being home is nice. Its good to see so many familiar faces and places. And so nice to have a big, cozy bed in my room all to myself. Driving the Volvo is fabulous and the food is great.

The school food was really, really starting to get frightening. I tend to stick to the salad bar (aka: brown lettuce and cucumbers) or the pasta. At first, I enjoyed the soups made by "Bon Apetit," but after I realized they were composed of all of the leftovers, I kept my distance from the soup bar. Its quite peculiar how, after Thanksgiving, EVERYTHING included turkey; turkey soup, turkey fried rice (yeah, pork is cool, but turkey?), turkey casserole, turkey lasagna, turkey burritos, etc. Sometimes our school tries to get far too creative for their capacity with menu items such as:
beef in mustard sauce pasta
cauliflower casserole
pork with pink peppercorns
clam linguini

But for now, thanks for the real salad, pesto pasta, homemade cookies, and home-style cookin'!
-It looks like I will have no problem gaining the freshmen fifteen, at home, that is.
