Checked out

Today's mindset includes nothing but some faint buzzing in the background about a magical place called the BAHAMAS!



Of course, in front of my eyes are notes for a Restorative dentistry Exam that I must ace to earn the rite to kick back on the beach with a good book and the ocassional pina colada. In exactly 27 hours, myself and 5 friends will be on the road to Charleston, SC. Along the way, we're likely to pick up some straglers, say 10 more 2nd year dental students and 16 first year dental student along with some 30 pharmacy students. When we arrive, Carnival Fantasy here we come!



A week of sun, pools, beaches, dancing, and friends awaits and I couldn't be more excited! We've booked a snorkelling excursion in Nassau where we will get to snorkel at a shallow reef, a shipwreck, and with sharks. My chilly self needs the sun ASAP!

Confession time!

Amidst a harrowing bought of insomnia, a lone young woman watches the food network in hopes of dreams of sugarplums...or maybe more accurately FRENCH FRIES!

If anyone knows anything about the healthy food movement, it's undeniable that one of the major culprits is mayonnaise. Well, I'm a rebel. I love mayo. Serve it up on a chicken sammich, in tuna salad, on a hamburger, or the best idea my taste buds have ever had the glorious experience of tasting...

*drool*

FRENCH FRIES!!!

Yes, I said it. I can't resist the temptation to dip those greasy sticks of starchy deliciousness in the heavenly mayonnaise of such foodie dismay. Where on earth did I learn such a habit you ask?! Well, Germany of course! My proud German heritage has instilled in me a love of the curious combination. Never have I experienced such simple tastes being brought together in a way so deliciously sinful. Chocolate? fuhgetaboudit...MAYO is where it's at!

Oh, and don't even think about that funky miracle whip goo...
