Chaunakah weekend
This weekend I had two nice dinners with my parents, brother, husband, cousin and cousin’s fiance. The first was yummy Jewish food, for which I made pinapple kugel. The whole thing was wonderful, and I really want to try making latkes now (my mom made them this time, and they were really good). For the other dinner Ethan and I made some simple Chinese food, including garlic Chinese broccoli (芥蓝/芥兰). Yummy. I am really excited about the Chinese broccoli because I had never made it before and it was both easy and yummy. It would be even better with a little oyster sauce though. Mmmmm…
I also had 2 hockey games this weekend. The first was on Friday against Synergy. We tied 1-1, it was a really close game, and although I felt a little all over the place, it was a fun one. I look forward to a re-match! The second game was against the Rebels, and we won 3-2. I got to play center, which was fun, but also a bit strange feeling since I haven’t played center for like 3 years. I got an assist that game on Steph’s second goal, and ended the game +1 overall. That was agreat victory, because the Rebels had been undefeated this season so far. Woo! Go Arrows!
Only one more day of finals for Gustavus students. I am looking forward to the later half of the week, when the campus is quiet and I can spend all day prepping for J-term without interruption. I am also looking forward to getting my Chinese final over with tonight. I think I have the vocab down pretty good, now as long as I don’t trip over grammar I should be ok. Wish me luck!
